MAT 20:10 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 as a tool 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 / go

ἐλθόντες

˓having˒_come

In a context such as this, your language might say “gone” instead of come. Alternate translation: [having gone]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / nominaladj

οἱ πρῶτοι

the first_‹ones›

Jesus is using the adjective first as a noun to mean the workers who were hired first. Your language may use adjectives in the same way. If not, you could translate this word with an equivalent phrase. Alternate translation: [the ones who were hired first]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / quotations

ἐνόμισαν ὅτι πλεῖον λήμψονται, καὶ

thought that more ˱they˲_˓will_be˒_receiving but

It may be more natural in your language to have a direct quotation here. Alternate translation: [thought, “We will receive more.” But]

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

πλεῖον

Here Jesus implies that the first workers thought that they would receive more than one denarius, since that is what the workers who started at the end of the day received. You could include this information if that would be helpful to your readers. Alternate translation: [more than one denarius] or [more than the workers who started latest received]

Note 5 topic: translate-bmoney

δηνάριον

˓a˒_denarius

See how you translated the word denarius in [20:2](../20/02.md). Alternate translation: [one silver coin] or [an average wage]
