LUKE 13:8 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: translate-tense

ὁ δὲ ἀποκριθεὶς λέγει αὐτῷ

he and answering /is/_saying ˱to˲_him

To call attention to a development in the story, Jesus uses the present tense in past narration. See how you decided to approach this usage in 7:40. If it would not be natural to use the present tense in your language, you could use the past tense in your translation. Alternate translation: [But he responded]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / hendiadys

ὁ & ἀποκριθεὶς λέγει

he & answering /is/_saying

Together the terms answering and says mean that the gardener responded to what his master told him to do. Alternate translation: [he responded]

ἄφες αὐτὴν καὶ τοῦτο τὸ ἔτος

allow it also this ¬the year

Alternate translation: [wait one more year before cutting down the tree]

Note 3 topic: translate-unknown

βάλω κόπρια

˱I˲_/may/_put manure

The word manure means animal dung. In some places people mix it into the ground to make the soil more fertile for plants and trees. If your readers would not be familiar with this practice, you could explain it, or you could use a general expression. Alternate translation: [mix animal dung into the soil to enrich it] or [fertilize it]
