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.

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / quotesinquotes
λέγει αὐτῷ, ἑταῖρε, πῶς εἰσῆλθες ὧδε μὴ ἔχων ἔνδυμα γάμου?
˱he˲_/is/_saying ˱to˲_him friend how ˱you˲_came_in here not having clothing ˱of˲_wedding
If it would be clearer in your language, you could translate this so that there is not a quotation within a quotation. Alternate translation: [and asked him politely how he came in that place, not having wedding clothes.]
Note 2 topic: translate-tense
λέγει
˱he˲_/is/_saying
To call attention to a development in the story, Jesus uses the present tense in past narration. If it would not be natural to do that in your language, you could use the past tense in your translation. Alternate translation: [he said]
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / rquestion
πῶς εἰσῆλθες ὧδε μὴ ἔχων ἔνδυμα γάμου?
how ˱you˲_came_in here not having clothing ˱of˲_wedding
The king is using the question form to rebuke the man who was not wearing wedding clothes. If you would not use the question form for this purpose in your language, you could translate this as a statement or an exclamation. Alternate translation: [it was wrong for you to come in here, not having wedding clothes.] or [you should never have come in here, not having wedding clothes!]
Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / yousingular
εἰσῆλθες
˱you˲_came_in
Here, the word you is singular because the king is speaking to one of the wedding guests.
Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / go
εἰσῆλθες
˱you˲_came_in
In a context such as this, your language might say “go” instead of come. Alternate translation: [did you go in]
Note 6 topic: translate-unknown
ἔνδυμα γάμου
clothing ˱of˲_wedding
The phrase wedding clothes refers to nice or special clothing that people would wear to weddings. Express the idea as you did in 22:11. Alternate translation: [appropriate clothes] or [the correct clothing]
