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.

UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

νίψαι & ἐνίψατο

wash & washed

Here, Jesus wanted the blind man to wash the mud off of his eyes in the pool and that is what the man did. Jesus did not want him to bathe or wash his whole body. If this might confuse your readers, you could express the meaning explicitly. Alternate translation: [and wash your eyes … washed his eyes]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / possession

τὴν κολυμβήθραν τοῦ Σιλωάμ

the pool ¬the ˱of˲_Siloam

Jesus is using of to describe a pool that is called Siloam. If this is not clear in your language, you could express the meaning explicitly. Alternate translation: [the pool named Siloam]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

ὃ ἑρμηνεύεται, ἀπεσταλμένος

which /is_being/_translated /having_been/_sent_out

If your language does not use the passive form in this way, you could express the idea in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. Alternate translation: [which means ‘Sent’]

Note 4 topic: writing-background

ὃ ἑρμηνεύεται, ἀπεσταλμένος

which /is_being/_translated /having_been/_sent_out

In this clause John provides a brief break in the storyline in order to explain to his readers what Siloam means. Use the natural form in your language for expressing background information. Alternate translation: [which means ‘Sent’]

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

ὃ ἑρμηνεύεται, ἀπεσταλμένος

which /is_being/_translated /having_been/_sent_out

John assumes that his readers will know that he is saying what the name Siloam means when translated from the Aramaic language into Greek. If it would be helpful to your readers, you could state that explicitly. Alternate translation: [which is the Aramaic word for ‘Sent’]

Note 6 topic: figures-of-speech / go

ἦλθεν

came

As the next verse suggests, the man came back to his home, not to Jesus. Your language may state “went” rather than came in contexts such as this. Use whichever is more natural. Alternate translation: [went back]

Note 7 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

βλέπων

seeing

Here, seeing means that the man became able to see before coming back. If this might confuse your readers, you could express the meaning explicitly. Alternate translation: [after becoming able to see]
