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: figures-of-speech / metaphor
σκοτισθήτωσαν οἱ ὀφθαλμοὶ αὐτῶν, τοῦ μὴ βλέπειν
/let_be/_darkened the eyes ˱of˲_them ¬which not /to_be/_seeing
This clause refers to being unable to understand something. See how you translated “eyes not to see” in 11:8. Alternate translation: [Let them be unable to understand]
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive
σκοτισθήτωσαν οἱ ὀφθαλμοὶ αὐτῶν
/let_be/_darkened the eyes ˱of˲_them
If your language does not use the passive form in this way, you can state this in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. Alternate translation: [Blind their eyes]
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor
τὸν νῶτον αὐτῶν διὰ παντὸς σύνκαμψον
the back ˱of˲_them through all_‹time› (Some words not found in SR-GNT: σκοτισθήτωσαν οἱ ὀφθαλμοὶ αὐτῶν τοῦ μὴ βλέπειν καὶ τὸν νῶτον αὐτῶν διὰ παντὸς σύγκαμψον)
This clause refers to making people suffer like how slaves suffer by carrying heavy burdens on their backs. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [make them suffer continually]
Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / quotemarks
παντὸς
all_‹time›
