NUM 16:32 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—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.

UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / personification

וַ⁠תִּפְתַּ֤ח הָ⁠אָ֨רֶץ֙ אֶת־פִּ֔י⁠הָ וַ⁠תִּבְלַ֥ע אֹתָ֖⁠ם

and,it_opened the=earth/land DOM her/its=mouth and,it_swallowed DOM=them

The author is speaking of the earth as if it were a living thing that could open its mouth and swallow people. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. See how you translated the similar clause in [verse 30](../16/30.md). Alternate translation: [and a hole formed in the earth and engulfed them]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

וְ⁠אֶת־בָּתֵּי⁠הֶ֑ם וְ⁠אֵ֤ת כָּל־הָ⁠אָדָם֙ אֲשֶׁ֣ר לְ⁠קֹ֔רַח וְ⁠אֵ֖ת כָּל־הָ⁠רֲכֽוּשׁ

and=DOM households_of,their and=DOM all/each/any/every the=humankind which/who [belonged]_to,Korah and=DOM all/each/any/every the,property

Here, every man and all the property could refer to: (1) people and their property in addition to Dathan, Abiram, and their families. These people agreed with Korah, but they were not among the 250 men who offered incense at the sacred tent. Alternate translation: [and their houses, and in addition every man who was to Korah besides the 250 men and all their property] (2) Dathan, Abiram, and their families. The author is simply giving more information about them. Alternate translation: [and their houses, that is, every man who was to Korah and all their property]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

וְ⁠אֶת־בָּתֵּי⁠הֶ֑ם

and=DOM households_of,their

Here, the author is speaking of the people and animals and objects that belonged to these men as if they were houses in which they lived. Your language may have a comparable expression that you can use in your translation, or you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [and their households]

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom

וְ⁠אֵ֤ת כָּל־הָ⁠אָדָם֙ אֲשֶׁ֣ר לְ⁠קֹ֔רַח

and=DOM all/each/any/every the=humankind which/who [belonged]_to,Korah

The author is using who was to Korah as a common expression of the culture to mean “who had followed Korah” or “who had supported Korah.” If this phrase does not have that meaning in your language, you could use a comparable expression from your language that does have that meaning, or you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [and every man who had followed Korah]

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / gendernotations

וְ⁠אֵ֤ת כָּל־הָ⁠אָדָם֙

and=DOM all/each/any/every the=humankind

Here the masculine term man has a generic sense that includes both men and women. If it would be helpful to your readers, you could use language in your translation that is clearly inclusive of both men and women. Alternate translation: [and every person]
