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: 7 If/because there_will _belong_not a _portion to_Lēviyyiy in_midst _of_your(pl) if/because is_the _priesthood _of YHWH inheritance _of_its and_Gād and_Rəʼūⱱēn and_the _half _of the _tribe _of (the)_Mənashsheh they _have _received inheritance _of_their from_the_other _side of_Yardēn/(Jordan) eastward which he _gave to/for_them Mosheh the _servant _of YHWH. (JOS_18:7)

OET-RV: 7 However, the Levites don’t receive a portion, because their inheritance is Yahweh’s priesthood. Gad and Reuven and the Menashsheh half-tribe have already received their inheritance that Yahweh’s servant Mosheh allocated to them on the eastern side of the Yordan. (JOS 18:7)
