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.

MSG ^(20-23)“But why do you let that Jezebel who calls herself a prophet mislead my dear servants into Cross-denying, self-indulging religion?

UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy

βάλλω αὐτὴν εἰς κλίνην

˱I˲_/am/_casting her into /a/_bed

Jesus is referring to punishing Jezebel with sickness by association with the bed that she would have to lie on because she was sick. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use an equivalent expression or express the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [I will punish her by making her gravely ill]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / ellipsis

τοὺς μοιχεύοντας μετ’ αὐτῆς εἰς θλῖψιν μεγάλην

the_‹ones› committing_adultery with her into tribulation great

Jesus 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. Alternate translation: [I will throw the ones committing adultery with her into great tribulation]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom

τοὺς μοιχεύοντας μετ’ αὐτῆς εἰς θλῖψιν μεγάλην

the_‹ones› committing_adultery with her into tribulation great

Jesus does not mean that he will literally throw the disobedient believers in Thyatira into tribulation. That is, he will not pick them up and heave them through the air. Alternate translation: [I will cause the ones committing adultery with her to experience great tribulation]
