2 PET 3:6 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 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.

Text critical issues=minor/spelling Clarity of original=clear Importance to us=normal (All still tentative.)

UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: writing-pronouns

δι’ ὧν

through which

Here, which refers both to God’s word and water. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express this explicitly. Alternate translation: [through the word of God and water]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

ὕδατι κατακλυσθεὶς

˱in˲_water ˓having_been˒_flooded

If your language does not use this passive form, you can state this in active form and you can state who did the action. You may need to begin a new sentence. Alternate translation: [God flooded the world with water]

ὁ τότε κόσμος

the then world

Here, at that time refers to the time when the world existed before the flood. It does not refer to the exact time when the universe was created. Alternate translation: [the world that existed then]

ὕδατι κατακλυσθεὶς

˱in˲_water ˓having_been˒_flooded

This phrase indicates the means by which the ancient world was destroyed. Alternate translation: [by having been flooded by water]
