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.

12:1-50 Two stories build simultaneously. A growing number of people are praising Jesus (this climaxes in 12:12-13), and the authorities are increasingly determined to arrest him and put him to death.
• John records three events that occurred just days prior to Passover (12:1-11, 12-19, 20-36). Then he explains why most of the people refused to believe and details Jesus’ final public appeal (12:37-50).
Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy
μου & τῶν ῥημάτων
˱of˲_me & ˱of˲_the words
Here, words refers to the message or teachings of Jesus. If this might confuse your readers, you could express the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [my message] or [what I say]
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
καὶ μὴ φυλάξῃ
and and not /may/_keep_‹them›
Here, keep means to obey. If this might confuse your readers, you could express the meaning explicitly. Alternate translation: [but does not obey them]
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
ἐγὼ οὐ κρίνω αὐτόν & ἵνα κρίνω τὸν κόσμον
I not /am/_judging him & in_order_that ˱I˲_/may/_judge the world
In this verse, the word judge implies condemnation. Jesus did not come to condemn people to be eternally punished in hell. If this might confuse your readers, you could express the meaning explicitly. Alternate translation: [I do not condemn him … so that I might condemn the world]
