MAT 13:5 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.

Cum sol alibi in bono: Fulgebunt justi sicut sol Matth. 13., et petra in fundamento, pro fortitudine fidei, et terra pro terrenis cogitationibus. Altitudinem terræ. Altitudo terræ est probitas animi disciplinis cœlestibus eruditi, et in tentationibus probati.

UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / nominaladj

ἄλλα

others

Jesus is using the adjective others as a noun to mean some of the rest of the seeds that did not fall beside the road. Your language may use adjectives in the same way. If not, you could translate this word with an equivalent phrase. Alternate translation: [some of the rest of the seeds]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

τὰ πετρώδη, ὅπου οὐκ εἶχεν γῆν πολλήν

the rocky_‹places› where not ˱it˲_/was/_having soil much

Here Jesus describes an area that has a thin layer of soil on top of a layer of rocks. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a word or phrase that describes this kind of area. Alternate translation: [a thin layer of soil on top of rocks] or [a rocky area, where there was very little soil]

οὐκ εἶχεν & ἐξανέτειλεν διὰ τὸ μὴ ἔχειν

not ˱it˲_/was/_having & ˱it˲_sprang_up because_of the not /to_be/_having

Here Jesus refers back to the others as a group using singular words. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use plural words to refer back to the others. Alternate translation: [they did not have … they sprang up, because they did not have]

Note 3 topic: grammar-connect-logic-result

εὐθέως ἐξανέτειλεν διὰ τὸ μὴ ἔχειν βάθος γῆς

immediately ˱it˲_sprang_up because_of the not /to_be/_having depth ˱of˲_soil

If it would be more natural in your language, you could reverse the order of these clauses, since the second clause gives the reason for the result that the first phrase describes. Alternate translation: [because it did not have deep soil, immediately it sprang up]

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom

ἐξανέτειλεν

˱it˲_sprang_up

Here, the phrase sprang up refers to how plants sprout or begin to grow. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a comparable phrase. Alternate translation: [it came up] or [it began to grow]
