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 Προσευχὴ ταπεινοῦ νεφέλας διῆλθε, καὶ ἕως συνεγγίσῃ οὐ μὴ παρακληθῇ, καὶ οὐ μὴ ἀποστῇ ἕως ἐπισκέψηται ὁ ὕψιστος· καὶ κρινεῖ δικαίως, καὶ ποιήσει κρίσιν.
(Proseuⱪaʸ tapeinou nefelas diaʸlthe, kai heōs sunengisaʸ ou maʸ paraklaʸthaʸ, kai ou maʸ apostaʸ heōs episkepsaʸtai ho hupsistos; kai krinei dikaiōs, kai poiaʸsei krisin. )

BrTr The prayer of the humble pierceth the clouds: and till it come nigh, he will not be comforted; and will not depart, till the most High shall behold to judge righteously, and execute judgment.
