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 as a tool 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.

UTNuW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / synecdoche

(Occurrence 0) the king of Israel went with the king of Judah and the king of Edom

(Some words not found in UHB: and=he/it_went king Yisrael and,king_of Yehuda and,king_of ʼEdōm and,made_~_march road/way_of seven_of days and=not it_became waters for_the,army and,for_the,animals which/who in/on/at/with,feet_of,them )

This refers to the kings accompanied by their armies. Alternate translation: “the king of Israel and his army went with the king of Judah and his army and the king of Edom and his army”

(Occurrence 0) They wandered around

(Some words not found in UHB: and=he/it_went king Yisrael and,king_of Yehuda and,king_of ʼEdōm and,made_~_march road/way_of seven_of days and=not it_became waters for_the,army and,for_the,animals which/who in/on/at/with,feet_of,them )

This could mean: (1) the kings were not sure where they were going, and so they changed direction often or (2) the kings knew where they were going and they walked around Moab ([2 Kings 3:8](../03/08.md)).
