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.

4:15 νεφθαλειμ ¦ νεφθαλιμ NA SBL
Key for above GNTs: yellow:punctuation differs, red:words differ (from our SR-GNT base).
4:12–11:1 Having been announced by John and the Father (3:13-17), and having obediently endured the testing in the wilderness (4:1-11), the Messiah was prepared for his ministry. He first confronted the Galilean Israelites with the message of the Kingdom.
Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy
γῆ Ζαβουλὼν καὶ γῆ Νεφθαλείμ, ὁδὸν θαλάσσης, πέραν τοῦ Ἰορδάνου, Γαλιλαία τῶν ἐθνῶν
land ˱of˲_Zabulon and land (Some words not found in SR-GNT: γῆ Ζαβουλὼν καὶ γῆ Νεφθαλίμ ὁδὸν θαλάσσης πέραν τοῦ Ἰορδάνου Γαλιλαία τῶν ἐθνῶν)
Here, the areas that Isaiah refers to represent the people who live in those areas. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use an equivalent expression from your language or state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “The people who live in the land of Zebulun and the land of Naphtali, the people who live on the way of the sea, beyond the Jordan, the people who live in Galilee of the Gentiles”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / parallelism
γῆ Ζαβουλὼν καὶ γῆ Νεφθαλείμ, ὁδὸν θαλάσσης, πέραν τοῦ Ἰορδάνου, Γαλιλαία τῶν ἐθνῶν
land ˱of˲_Zabulon and land (Some words not found in SR-GNT: γῆ Ζαβουλὼν καὶ γῆ Νεφθαλίμ ὁδὸν θαλάσσης πέραν τοῦ Ἰορδάνου Γαλιλαία τῶν ἐθνῶν)
Each of the three lines of poetry in this verse gives a different description of the same area. Hebrew poetry was based on this kind of repetition, and it would be good to show this to your readers by including all three descriptions in your translation rather than combining them. However, if it would be helpful to your readers, you could connect the phrases with a word or phrase that indicates that these lines are all descriptions of one place. Alternate translation: “The land of Zebulun and the land of Naphtali, which is the way of the sea, beyond the Jordan, which is Galilee of the Gentiles”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
ὁδὸν θαλάσσης
way ˱of˲_/the/_sea
The phrase the way of the sea could refer to: (1) areas near the sea of Galilee. Alternate translation: “the areas around the Sea of Galilee” (2) a road that ended at the Mediterranean sea. Alternate translation: “the road that goes to the Mediterranean sea”
Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
πέραν τοῦ Ἰορδάνου
beyond the Jordan
Here Isaiah could be referring to: (1) areas to the west of the Jordan River. Alternate translation: “on the western side of the Jordan” (2) areas to the east of the Jordan River. Alternate translation: “on the eastern side of the Jordan”
Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / possession
Γαλιλαία τῶν ἐθνῶν
Galilee ˱of˲_the pagans
Here, Isaiah is using the possessive form to describe Galilee as a place where Gentiles live. If this is not clear in your language, you could express the idea in another way. Alternate translation: “Galilee, home of Gentiles”
