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: writing-pronouns

ἐκεῖνος & ἄρῃ & αὐτῷ

that_‹one› & ˱he˲_/may/_take_away & him

The pronouns that one, he, and him refer to Jesus in this verse. Consider whether it might be helpful to your readers or more natural in your language to use the name “Jesus” in one or more of these instances.

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

ἐκεῖνος ἐφανερώθη

that_‹one› /was/_revealed

See the discussion of the term “appear” in Part 3 of the Introduction to 1 John. Here the term seems to have an active meaning. Alternate translation: “Jesus came to earth”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

ἁμαρτία ἐν αὐτῷ οὐκ ἔστιν

sin in him not is

John speaks of sin as if it were an object that could be inside of Jesus, although he is emphasizing that sin is not in Jesus. Alternate translation: “Jesus has never sinned”
