MAL 1:5 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 / quotesinquotes

וְ⁠עֵינֵי⁠כֶ֖ם תִּרְאֶ֑ינָה וְ⁠אַתֶּ֤ם תֹּֽאמְרוּ֙ יִגְדַּ֣ל יְהוָ֔ה מֵ⁠עַ֖ל לִ⁠גְב֥וּל יִשְׂרָאֵֽל

and,eyes,your_all's_own see and,you_all say great YHWH from=under to,borders Yisrael

The words in this verse could: (1) be a continuation of Yahweh’s words that began in the previous verse. If you treat this as a quotation from Yahweh, it may be more natural in your language not to have a quotation within a quotation. Alternate translation: “And your eyes will see, and you yourselves will say that Yahweh is great beyond the border of Israel” (2) the words of Malachi. If you choose this option, you will need to add closing quotes at the end of the previous verse or whatever means your language uses to end a quotation, and use whatever punctuation your language requires to indicate that Malachi is speaking. Alternate translation: “And your eyes will see, and you yourselves will say, “Great is Yahweh beyond the border of Israel””

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / synecdoche

וְ⁠עֵינֵי⁠כֶ֖ם תִּרְאֶ֑ינָה

and,eyes,your_all's_own see

Yahweh is using one part of the Judeans, their eyes, to represent all of them in the act of seeing. The emphasis is on their eyewitness experience. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “And you will see for yourselves”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / 123person

וְ⁠עֵינֵי⁠כֶ֖ם תִּרְאֶ֑ינָה וְ⁠אַתֶּ֤ם תֹּֽאמְרוּ֙ יִגְדַּ֣ל יְהוָ֔ה מֵ⁠עַ֖ל לִ⁠גְב֥וּל יִשְׂרָאֵֽל

and,eyes,your_all's_own see and,you_all say great YHWH from=under to,borders Yisrael

It may be more natural in your language to have Yahweh speak of himself in the first person rather than in the third person. Alternate translation: “And your eyes will see, and you yourselves will say that I am great beyond the border of Israel!”
