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.

(Some words not found in UHB: and,four men they_were leprous entrance_of the,gate and=they_said (a)_man to/towards his/its=neighbour what we sit here until die )
Although there were four men, probably only one of them asks this question. The question is rhetorical and emphasizes that they should not do this. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express this question as a statement. Alternate translation: “Certainly we should not sit here until we die”
