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.

BrLXX Καὶ νῦν γνῶθι καὶ ἴδε σὺ τί ποιήσεις, ὅτι συντετέλεσται ἡ κακία εἰς τὸν κύριον ἡμῶν καὶ εἰς τὸν οἶκον αὐτοῦ· καὶ οὗτος υἱὸς λοιμὸς, καὶ οὐκ ἔστι λαλῆσαι πρὸς αὐτόν.
(Kai nun gnōthi kai ide su ti poiaʸseis, hoti suntetelestai haʸ kakia eis ton kurion haʸmōn kai eis ton oikon autou; kai houtos huios loimos, kai ouk esti lalaʸsai pros auton. )
BrTr And now do thou consider, and see what thou wilt do; for mischief is determined against our lord and against his house; and he is a vile character, and one cannot speak to him.

UST So now you should think about it and decide what you can do. If you do not do something, terrible things will happen to our master and to all his family. Nabal is an extremely wicked man, so he will not listen to anyone who tries to tell him what to do.”

T4T So now you should think about it and decide what you can do. If you do not do something, terrible things will happen to our master and to all his family. Nabal is an extremely wicked man, with the result that he will not heed anyone when that person tries to tell him anything that he should do.”
LEB And so then, know and consider[fn] what you should do, for evil has been decided against our master and against all his household, and he is such a wicked man,[fn] nobody can reason with him!”[fn]
BBE So now, give thought to what you are going to do; for evil is in store for our master and all his house: for he is such a good-for-nothing person that it is not possible to say anything to him.
