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 / explicit
πιστεύω
˱I˲_/am/_believing
Here the man could be implying that he believes: (1) in God and that God will help him and his son. Alternate translation: “I believe in God” or “I believe that God will help us” (2) in Jesus and that Jesus will help him and his son. Alternate translation: “I believe in you” or “I believe that you will help us”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
βοήθει μου τῇ ἀπιστίᾳ
/be/_giving_help ˱of˲_me ˱for˲_the unbelief
Here the man implies that he wants Jesus to Help him overcome or remove his unbelief. In other words, while the man does believe, he also has unbelief, and he wants Jesus to help him get rid of that unbelief. If it would be helpful in your language, you could make that idea more explicit. Alternate translation: “Help me overcome the unbelief I still have” or “Assist me in removing my unbelief” or “Help me so that I always believe”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns
μου τῇ ἀπιστίᾳ
˱of˲_me ˱for˲_the unbelief
If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea of unbelief, you could express the same idea in another way. Alternate translation: “me with how I do not believe” or “me whenever I fail to believe”
