LUKE 17:3 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: figures-of-speech / explicit

προσέχετε ἑαυτοῖς

/be/_taking_heed ˱to˲_yourselves

Since Jesus is teaching about how important it is not to sin and not to encourage others to sin, the implication is that this statement means that he wants his disciples to help one another not to sin. Alternate translation: “Help one another not to sin”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / you

προσέχετε

/be/_taking_heed

The implied “you” in this imperative is plural, since Jesus is speaking to his disciples.

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / youcrowd

σου & ἐπιτίμησον & ἄφες

˱of˲_you & (Some words not found in SR-GNT: προσέχετε ἑαυτοῖς ἐὰν ἁμάρτῃ ὁ ἀδελφός σου ἐπιτίμησον αὐτῷ καὶ ἐὰν μετανοήσῃ ἄφες αὐτῷ)

The word your and the implied “you” in the imperatives rebuke and forgive are singular, since Jesus is addressing an individual situation, even though he is speaking to a group. If these singular forms would not be natural in your language for someone who was speaking to a group of people, you could use plural forms in your translation.

Note 4 topic: grammar-connect-condition-hypothetical

ἐὰν ἁμάρτῃ ὁ ἀδελφός σου, ἐπιτίμησον αὐτῷ

if /may/_sin the brother ˱of˲_you give_rebuke ˱to˲_him

Jesus is describing a hypothetical situation in order to tell his disciples what they should do if it takes place. Alternate translation: “Suppose a fellow believer were to sin. Then you should rebuke him”

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

ὁ ἀδελφός σου

the brother ˱of˲_you

Jesus is using the term brother to mean someone who shares the same faith. Alternate translation: “a fellow believer”

Note 6 topic: figures-of-speech / gendernotations

ὁ ἀδελφός σου

the brother ˱of˲_you

Although the term brother is masculine, Jesus is using the word in a generic sense that includes both men and women. Alternate translation: “a fellow believer”

ἐπιτίμησον αὐτῷ

give_rebuke ˱to˲_him

Alternate translation: “correct him” or “tell him strongly that what he did was wrong”

Note 7 topic: grammar-connect-condition-hypothetical

καὶ ἐὰν μετανοήσῃ, ἄφες αὐτῷ

and if ˱he˲_/may/_repent forgive ˱to˲_him

Jesus is describing another hypothetical situation in order to tell his disciples what they should do if it takes place. It may be helpful to begin a new sentence here. Alternate translation: “And suppose that believer were to repent. Then you should forgive him”
