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.

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / 123person
μὴ αἰσχυνέσθω, δοξαζέτω δὲ τὸν Θεὸν
not ˱him˲_˓let_be_being˒_ashamed ˱him˲_˓let_be˒_glorifying but ¬the God
Peter is addressing his readers indirectly by using the third person. If this might be confusing in your language, you could use the second person, as the previous verse does. See the discussion of this in the General Notes for this chapter. Alternate translation: [do not be ashamed, but glorify God]
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
ἐν τῷ ὀνόματι τούτῳ
in ¬the name this
Here, this name refers to the title “Christian” mentioned earlier in the verse. If this might confuse your readers, you could express this explicitly. Alternate translation: [because he bears the name “Christian”] or [because people have recognized him as a Christian]
