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 as a tool 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: translate-names

General Information:

This is a list of the Levite clans. Moses counts the Levites separately from the other tribes because they did not receive any land.

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

(Occurrence 0) counted clan by clan

(Some words not found in UHB: and=these counted_of the,Levites to=their=clans of,Gershon clan_of the,Gershonites of,Kohath clan_of the,Kohathites of,Merari clan_of the,Merarites )

If your language does not use the passive form in this way, you can state this in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. Alternate translation: “that the leaders also counted clan by clan”

(Occurrence 0) Gershon … Kohath … Merari

(Some words not found in UHB: and=these counted_of the,Levites to=their=clans of,Gershon clan_of the,Gershonites of,Kohath clan_of the,Kohathites of,Merari clan_of the,Merarites )
