LEV 21:18 Parallel Verse View

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: grammar-connect-logic-result

כִּ֥י

that/for/because/then/when

The word translated as For indicates that what follows is a reason for what came before. Use a connector in your language that makes it clear that what follows is a reason for what came before. Alternate translation: “This is because”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / ellipsis

לֹ֣א יִקְרָ֑ב

not come_near

This expression leaves out some of the words that in many languages a sentence would need in order to be complete. You could supply these words from earlier in the sentence if it would be clearer in your language. Alternate translation: “shall not draw near to the altar to offer a sacrifice”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

שָׂרֽוּעַ׃

(Some words not found in UHB: that/for/because/then/when all (a)_man which/who in/on/over=him/it defect not come_near (a)_man blind or lame or disfigured or deformed )

This expression likely refers to a person who is born with a defect in which one leg is longer than another. If it would be helpful for your readers, consider stating the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “with an extended leg” or “who has one leg that is longer than the other”
