Note: This view shows ‘verses’ which are not natural language units and hence sometimes only part of a sentence will be visible. Normally the OET discourages the reading of individual ‘verses’, but this view is only designed for doing comparisons of different translations. Click on any Bible version abbreviation down the left-hand side to see the verse in more of its context. 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.

Note 1 topic: translate-names
Βηθσαϊδὰ
Bethsaida
See how you translated Bethsaida in 1:44.
Note 2 topic: writing-quotations
ἠρώτων αὐτὸν λέγοντες
˱they˲_/were/_asking him saying
Consider natural ways of introducing direct quotations in your language. Alternate translation: “asked him by saying”
κύριε
Sir
Speaking to Philip, the Greeks called him Sir in order to show respect or politeness. (See: lord)
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / declarative
θέλομεν τὸν Ἰησοῦν ἰδεῖν
˱we˲_/are/_wanting ¬the Jesus /to/_see
The Greeks are using a statement to make a request. If this is confusing in your language, you can use a more natural form for a request. Alternate translation: “may we see Jesus?” or “could you take us to see Jesus?”
