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.

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / quotesinquotes

וַ⁠נֹּ֕אמֶר נַעֲשֶׂה נָּ֣א לָ֔⁠נוּ לִ⁠בְנ֖וֹת אֶת הַ⁠מִּזְבֵּ֑חַ

and,said take_action now to/for=us to,build DOM the,altar

If it would be clearer in your language, you could translate this so that there is not a quotation within a quotation. Alternate translation: “So we said to ourselves that we should now do to build for ourselves an altar”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / explicitinfo

נַעֲשֶׂה נָּ֣א לִ⁠בְנ֖וֹת

take_action now (Some words not found in UHB: and,said take_action now to/for=us to,build DOM the,altar not for,burnt_offering and=not for,sacrifice )

It might seem that this expression contains extra information that would be unnatural to express in your language. If so, you can shorten it. Alternate translation: “Let us build”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / genericnoun

לֹ֥א לְ⁠עוֹלָ֖ה וְ⁠לֹ֥א לְ⁠זָֽבַח

not for,burnt_offering and=not for,sacrifice

The eastern representatives are not referring to specific offerings or sacrifices. They mean those things in general. It may be more natural in your language to express this meaning by using plural forms. Alternate translation: “not for burnt offerings or sacrifices”
