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 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: writing-pronouns
ἤκουσαν & αὐτοῖς & ἀνέβησαν & αὐτοὺς & αὐτῶν
˱they˲_heard & ˱to˲_them & ˱they˲_went_up & them & ˱of˲_them
The pronouns they, their and them all refer to the witnesses, not to the people who were seeing them alive again. It may be helpful to clarify this for your readers. Alternate translation: [the witnesses heard … to them … the witnesses went up … their … them]
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / youdual
ἀνάβατε ὧδε
go_up here
Since the voice is speaking to two people, the implied “you” in the imperative Come up would be dual if your language uses that form. Otherwise, it would be plural.
