About verse numbering: SIR 36:28

Bible versions divide some chapters and verses differently (called “versification”). SIR 36:28 is valid in the numbering listed below, but is outside the OET-RV / English numbering used for the ordinary parallel pages.

In OET-LV (OET-LV numbering), SIR 36:28 corresponds to OET-RV / English SIR 36:23.

The page below is a copy of the ordinary OET-RV / English page; its headings and navigation retain that numbering.

Note: This view shows ‘verses’ which are not necessarily natural language units and hence sometimes only part of a sentence will be visible—click on any Bible version abbreviation down the left-hand side to see the verse in more of its context. Normally the OET discourages the reading of individual ‘verses’, but this view is only designed as a tool for Bible-translators and others doing comparisons of different translations—the older translations are further down the page (so you can read up from the bottom to trace the English translation history). The OET segments on this page are still early looks into the drafted texts of the Open English Translation of the Bible—please double-check these texts in advance before using in public.
