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.

Key for above GNTs: yellow:punctuation differs, red:words differ (from our SR-GNT base).
22:1 the water of life: See 7:17; John 4:10-15; cp. Exod 17:1-7; Isa 55:1; Ezek 47:1-10; Zech 14:8.
Note 1 topic: writing-pronouns
ἔδειξέν
˱he˲_showed
The pronoun he refers to the angel who had one of the seven bowls, who began speaking to John in 21:9 and who was showing him the new Jerusalem. It may be helpful to clarify this for your readers. Alternate translation: “the angel who had been showing me the city showed”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / ellipsis
ἐκ τοῦ θρόνου τοῦ Θεοῦ καὶ τοῦ Ἀρνίου
out_of the throne ¬the ˱of˲_God and ˱of˲_the Lamb
John is leaving out some of the words that in many languages a sentence would need in order to be complete. You can supply these words from the context if that would be clearer in your language. That may help clarify that God and the Lamb do not share a single throne. Alternate translation: “from the throne of God and from the throne of the Lamb”
