MARK 9:6 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: writing-background

οὐ γὰρ ᾔδει τί ἀποκριθῇ; ἔκφοβοι γὰρ ἐγένοντο

not for ˱he˲_/had/_known what ˱he˲_/may/_answer terrified for ˱they˲_became

This entire verse is a parenthetical statement which gives background information about Peter, James, and John. Use the natural form in your language for expressing background information. Alternate translation: [Now as a matter of fact, he did not know what he should answer, for they were terrified]

Note 2 topic: grammar-connect-logic-result

οὐ & ᾔδει τί ἀποκριθῇ; ἔκφοβοι γὰρ ἐγένοντο

not & ˱he˲_/had/_known what ˱he˲_/may/_answer terrified for ˱they˲_became

If it would be more natural in your language, you could reverse the order of these clauses, since the second clause gives the reason for the result that the first clause describes. Alternate translation: [because they were terrified, he did not know what he should answer]

ἔκφοβοι & ἐγένοντο

terrified & ˱they˲_became

Alternate translation: [they were very frightened] or [they were very afraid]
