Note: These word pages enable you to click through to the Open Scriptures Hebrew Bible (OSHB) that the Open English Translation Old Testament is translated from. The OSHB is based on the Westminster Leningrad Codex (WLC). (We are still searching for a digitized facsimile of the Leningradensis manuscript that we can easily link to. See this list and this archive for now.) This is all part of the commitment of the Open English Translation team to be transparent about all levels of the Bible translation process right back to the original manuscripts.

OET-LV: 23And_against the_master_of the_heavens you_have_lifted_yourself_up and_DOM_the_vessels of his_of_house they_have_brought before_you and_you and_your(pl)_of_nobles your(pl)_of_wives and_your(pl)_of_concubines (the)_wine are_drinking with_them and_DOM_the_gods_of (the)_silver and_(the)_gold (the)_bronze (the)_iron (the)_wood and_(the)_stone who not are_seeing and_not are_hearing and_not are_knowing you_have_praised and_DOM_the_god who your_of_breath is_in_his_of_hand and_all your(pl)_of_ways to_him/it not you_have_glorified.   (DAN_5:23)

OET-RV: 23On the contrary, you’ve proudly promoted yourself as being greater than the master of the heavens. You brought the temple cups in here and you and your nobles, your wives and your concubines, have drunk wine from them. You praised the gods made from silver and gold, bronze, iron, wood, and stone, which can’t see, or hear, or know anything, yet you haven’t honoured the god who decides your future and every breath that you take. (DAN 5:23)
