Note: This view shows ‘verses’ which are not natural language units and hence sometimes only part of a sentence will be visible—click on any Bible version abbreviation down the left-hand side to see the verse in more of its context. Normally the OET discourages the reading of individual ‘verses’, but this view is only designed as a tool for doing comparisons of different translations—the older translations are further down the page (so you can read up from the bottom to trace the English translation history). The OET segments on this page are still very early looks into the unfinished texts of the Open English Translation of the Bible—please double-check these texts in advance before using in public.

OET (OET-RV) “Behold, we the servants of Nebuchadnezzar the great king lie before you. Use us as it is pleasing in your sight.
BrLXX ἰδοὺ ἡμεῖς οἱ παῖδες Ναβουχοδονόσορ βασιλέως μεγάλου παρακείμεθα ἐνώπιόν σου, χρῆσαι ἡμῖν καθὼς ἀρεστόν ἐστι τῷ προσώπῳ σου.
(idou haʸmeis hoi paides Nabouⱪodonosor basileōs megalou parakeimetha enōpion sou, ⱪraʸsai haʸmin kathōs areston esti tōi prosōpōi sou. )
BrTr Behold, we the servants of Nabuchodonosor the great king lie before thee; use us as shall be good in thy sight.
WEBBE “Behold, we the servants of Nebuchadnezzar the great king lie before you. Use us as it is pleasing in your sight.
DRA Let thy indignation towards us cease: for it is better for us to live and serve Nabuchodonosor the great king, and be subject to thee, than to die and to perish, or suffer the miseries of slavery.
RV Behold, we the servants of Nebuchadnezzar the great king lie before thee: use us as it is pleasing in thy sight.
(Behold, we the servants of Nebuchadnezzar the great king lie before thee/you: use us as it is pleasing in thy/your sight. )
KJB-1769 Behold, we the servants of Nabuchodonosor the great king lie before thee; use us as shall be good in thy sight.
(Behold, we the servants of Nebuchadnezzar the great king lie before thee/you; use us as shall be good in thy/your sight. )
KJB-1611 Behold, we the seruants of Nabuchodonosor the great king lie before thee; vse vs as shall be good in thy sight.
(Modernised spelling is same as from KJB-1769 above)
Wycl Thin indignacioun ceesse aboute vs; for it is betere, that we lyue and serue Nabugodonosor, the grete kyng, and be suget to thee, than that we die, and suffre with oure perischyng the harmes of oure seruage.
(Thin indignation cease about us; for it is better, that we live and serve Nebuchadnezzar, the great king, and be subject to thee/you, than that we die, and suffer with our perishing the harmes of our servitude.)
