1 TIM 5:6 Parallel Verse View

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 as a tool 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.

UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / genericnoun

ἡ & σπαταλῶσα

the_‹woman› & living_luxuriously

The phrase the one represents this kind of widow in general, not one particular widow. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express the idea in another way. Alternate translation: [each one who lives self-indulgently]

σπαταλῶσα

living_luxuriously

Alternate translation: [living for pleasure] or [living in a luxurious way]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

ζῶσα τέθνηκεν

˱while˲_living ˓has˒_died

Here Paul describes widows who act like this as if they had died even though they are living. He means that they are like dead people because they are spiritually dead. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express the idea in simile form or state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [although still living, is like someone who has died] or [living, has died spiritually]
