# Open English Translation (OET) MCP Server An official **Model Context Protocol (MCP)** server providing Large Language Models (LLMs) with high-speed, structured access to the **Open English Translation (OET)** of the Bible. --- ## What Makes the OET Different? 1. **Dual-Stream Parallel Translation**: * **Readers' Version (OET-RV)**: Natural, idiomatic, thought-for-thought modern English designed for macro-level discourse comprehension and fluency. * **Literal Version (OET-LV)**: Transparent, hyper-literal formal equivalence showing every added copula, article, transitive direct object, and untranslated particle. 2. **Word-Level Lexical Graph & Interlinear**: * Every word token is cross-linked via TSV datasets to Hebrew/Aramaic (`UHB`) and Greek (`SR-GNT`) dictionary entries, lemmas, Strong's numbers, morphological tags, and canonical gloss distributions. 3. **Explicit Translation Decision Tags (`\add`)**: * Encodes the exact reason for every addition or divergence (`@` for referent replacements, `≈` for rewordings, `#` for number changes, `%` for speech shifts, `^` for opposite phrasing, `?` for uncertainty, `≈`/`^`/`→` for Hebrew poetic parallelism, and `⇔` for clause re-ordering). --- ## Quick Start ### Running via `uvx` ```bash uvx oet-mcp-server ``` ### Installation from Source > **Note:** the 191 MB corpus database is a **Git-LFS** file.
