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 as a tool 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: figures-of-speech / pastforfuture
λέγει
˓is˒_saying
Here John uses the present tense in past narration in order to call attention to a development in the story.
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / ellipsis
πεπίστευκας & πιστεύσαντες
˓have˒_believed & ˓having˒_believed
Jesus is leaving out some of the words that a sentence would need in many languages to be complete. If it would be helpful in your language, you could supply these words from the context. Alternate translation: [you have believed that I have become alive again … having believed that I have become alive again]
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive
μακάριοι οἱ μὴ ἰδόντες
blessed_‹are› the_‹ones› not ˓having˒_seen
If your language does not use the passive form in this way, you can state this in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. Alternate translation: [God blesses those not having seen]
Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / ellipsis
μὴ ἰδόντες
not ˓having˒_seen
Jesus is leaving out some of the words that a sentence would need in many languages to be complete. If it would be helpful in your language, you could supply these words from the context. Alternate translation: [not having seen me]
