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.

6.18 Involutæ sunt. Omne quod involvitur in se replicatur: sic mali, volentes aliquando bona quasi extra se tensi, ad consueta mala tentati replicantur. Vel involutæ sunt, qui etsi aliquando victa una nequitia pedem levant, regnans altera et ad eam quam vicerant implicat, ut qui jam spreta avaritia adhuc luxuriosus est, pro pretio luxuriæ ad avaritiam redit. Sic ope vicaria fugitivum suum vitia retinent, et quasi laqueis egressus ligant, unde sæpe lapsi ad suas voluptates redeunt, nec curant ea quæ permanent, unde subdit: Ambulabunt in vacuum et peribunt. Quia nihil secum de fructu sui laboris portant. Sed justus in conspectu Domini non apparet vacuus: portat enim manipulos justitiæ. Ab illorum autem imitatione per finem terret, Considerate semitas, etc.

6.18 Involutæ are. Omne that involvitur in se replicatur: so mali, volentes aliquando good as_if extra se tensi, to consueta mala tentati replicantur. Vel involutæ are, who etsi aliquando victa una nequitia pedem levant, regnans altera and to her how vicerant implicat, as who yam spreta avaritia adhuc lighturiosus it_is, for pretio lighturiæ to avaritiam redit. So ope vicaria fugitivum his_own vitia retinent, and as_if laqueis egressus ligant, whence sæpe lapsi to their_own voluptates redeunt, but_not curant ea which permanent, whence subdit: Ambulabunt in vacuum and peribunt. Because nihil secum about fructu sui laboris portant. But justus in in_sight Master not/no apparet vacuus: portat because manipulos justitiæ. Ab illorum however imitatione through finem terret, Considerate semitas, etc.

turn_aside caravans course,their

The implication is that these Caravans are leaving their usual routes to look for water in the dry season. The oases along the routes have presumably dried up, and the caravans are going to places where they expect to find streams still flowing. You can indicate this in your translation if that would be helpful to your readers. Alternate translation: “Caravans turn themselves aside from their way to look for water”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom

יַעֲל֖וּ

go_up

The expression go up does not necessarily indicate travel to a higher elevation. In this context, it probably means to leave the caravan route and go into the untracked desert. Your language may have a comparable expression that you could use in your translation. Alternate translation: “they go out”
