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.

UTNuW Translation Notes:

because

Connecting Statement:

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

τοῦ πέμψαντός με

¬the ˱of˲_the_‹one› /having/_sent me

Here, the one who sent me refers to God. See how you translated it in 4:34.
