NEH 12:39 Parallel Verse View

Note: This view shows ‘verses’ which are not necessarily natural language units and hence sometimes only part of a sentence will be visible—click on any Bible version abbreviation down the left-hand side to see the verse in more of its context. Normally the OET discourages the reading of individual ‘verses’, but this view is only designed as a tool for Bible-translators and others doing comparisons of different translations—the older translations are further down the page (so you can read up from the bottom to trace the English translation history). The OET segments on this page are still early looks into the drafted texts of the Open English Translation of the Bible—please double-check these texts in advance before using in public.

These are the names of three of the gates of Jerusalem. See how you translated them in [8:16](../08/16.md), [3:6](../03/06.md), and [3:3](../03/03.md). Alternate translation: [they went over the Ephraim Gate, the Old Gate, and the Fish Gate]

and,they_stopped (Some words not found in UHB: and,from,over to,the_gate_of ʼEfrayim and,over Old gate and,over gate_of of,the_fish(es) and,the_tower_of Ḩₐnan^ʼēl and,the_tower_of of,the_hundred and=unto gate_of of,the_sheep and,they_stopped at,the_gate_of of,the_guard )

This is apparently the name of one of the gates of the Jerusalem temple. Verse [3:25](../03/25.md) describes repairs that were made to the wall near the “court of the guard,” which was in the temple precincts, so presumably this was the gate that led into that court. “Stood” means “stood still,” that is, “stopped moving.” The people were already standing up to walk. Alternate translation: [This second group stopped when it reached the Gate of the Guard]
