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.

OET (OET-RV)But instead you’re trying to find a way to have me killed—to kill the man who has spoken the truth to you—truth that I heard from God. Abraham never did that.

OET-LVBut now you_all_are_seeking to_kill_ me _off, a_man who I_have_spoken the truth to_you_all, that I_heard from the god, this Abraʼam did not.

SR-GNTΝῦν δὲ ζητεῖτέ με ἀποκτεῖναι, ἄνθρωπον ὃς τὴν ἀλήθειαν ὑμῖν λελάληκα, ἣν ἤκουσα παρὰ τοῦ ˚Θεοῦ· τοῦτο Ἀβραὰμ οὐκ ἐποίησεν.
   (Nun de zaʸteite me apokteinai, anthrōpon hos taʸn alaʸtheian humin lelalaʸka, haʸn aʸkousa para tou ˚Theou; touto Abraʼam ouk epoiaʸsen.)

TSNTyndale Study Notes:

8:12-59 The debate about whether or not Jesus is the Messiah continues from 7:52. Jesus was still at the Festival of Shelters in Jerusalem. During the festival, the conflicts Jesus had endured in ch 7 continued and intensified.


UTNuW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

τοῦτο Ἀβραὰμ οὐκ ἐποίησεν

this Abraham not did

Here, this refers to what Jesus said earlier in the verse about what the Jews were trying to do to him. If it would be more natural in your language, you could state this explicitly. Alternate translation: “Abraham did not seek to kill someone who told him the truth from God”
