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-RV: 23 Then they’ll no longer defile themselves with their idols, with their disgusting things, or with any of their other sins. I’ll save them from all of their faithless actions with which they’ve sinned, and I’ll purify them so they’ll be my people and I’ll be their god. (EZE 37:23)
