MAT 20:5 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 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 / explicit

οἱ & ἀπῆλθον

they & went_away

Here Jesus implies that the people went to the vineyard and began to work there. You could include this information if that would be helpful to your readers. Alternate translation: [they went to the vineyard and worked there]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / go

ἀπῆλθον

went_away

In a context such as this, your language might say “came” instead of went. Alternate translation: [came out]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / go

ἐξελθὼν

˓having˒_come_out

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

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

περὶ ἕκτην καὶ ἐνάτην ὥραν

about ˓the˒_sixth and ninth hour

In this culture, people began counting the hours each day beginning around daybreak at six o’clock in the morning. So, the sixth hour would be around noon, and the ninth hour would be around three o’clock in the afternoon. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express this in the way the people of your culture reckon time. See how you translated the similar time reference in [20:3](../20/03.md). Alternate translation: [about 12:00 PM and 3:00 PM]

Note 5 topic: translate-ordinal

ἕκτην καὶ ἐνάτην ὥραν

˓the˒_sixth and ninth hour

If your language does not use ordinal numbers, you could use a cardinal number here or an equivalent expression. Alternate translation: [hours six and nine]

Note 6 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

ἐποίησεν ὡσαύτως

˱he˲_did likewise

Here Jesus means that the master of the house did and said the same things that he said and did at “the third hour” (see [20:3–4](../20/03–4.md)). He also implies that there were people in the marketplace who agreed to work in his vineyard. If it would be helpful in your language, you could make some or all of that information more explicit. Alternate translation: [he told even more people that he would pay them whatever is right, and they too agreed to work in his vineyard]
