MARK 6:49 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.

UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: grammar-connect-words-phrases

δὲ

and

Here, the word But introduces the next thing that happened. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a word or phrase that introduces the next event, or you could leave But untranslated. Alternate translation: “Then”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

ἐπὶ τῆς θαλάσσης περιπατοῦντα

on the sea walking

See how you translated this phrase in 6:48. Alternate translation: “walking on the surface of the sea” or “miraculously walking on top of the sea”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / quotations

ἔδοξαν ὅτι φάντασμά ἐστιν

supposed that /a/_ghost ˱he˲_is

It may be more natural in your language to have a direct quotation here. Alternate translation: “thought, ‘He is a ghost,’”

Note 4 topic: translate-unknown

φάντασμά

/a/_ghost

Here, the word ghost refers to a spiritual or supernatural being that people see. In Jesus’ culture, when people saw a ghost, they usually assumed that something bad was going to happen. If your readers would not be familiar with this type of unusual experience, you could use the name of something similar in your area or you could use a more general term. Alternate translation: “an apparition” or “some powerful and dangerous being”
