OET (OET-LV) How_of_blessed_are_you Oh_land which_your_of_king is_a_son_of nobles and_your(pl)_of_princes at_time they_eat for_strength and_not for_drinking.
OET (OET-RV) A country is blessed if its king comes from a noble family
⇔ and its princes eat and drink for strength and not for drunkenness.
Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / apostrophe
(Occurrence 0) blessed are you, land
(Some words not found in UHB: how_of,blessed_[are]_you earth/land which,your_of,king son_of nobility and,your(pl)_of,princes at,time feast for,strength and=not for,drinking )
The writer is speaking to the people of the nation as if they were the land itself, and he is speaking to the land as if it were a person. (See also: figs-personification)
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
(Occurrence 0) king is the son of nobles
(Some words not found in UHB: how_of,blessed_[are]_you earth/land which,your_of,king son_of nobility and,your(pl)_of,princes at,time feast for,strength and=not for,drinking )
This implies that the son has been trained by his elders in the customs of being a good king. Alternate translation: “king has trained by nobles”
(Occurrence 0) for strength, and not for drunkenness
(Some words not found in UHB: how_of,blessed_[are]_you earth/land which,your_of,king son_of nobility and,your(pl)_of,princes at,time feast for,strength and=not for,drinking )
This explains why the blessed leaders eat.
10:15-20 The audience for this speech might have been an assembly of government workers. How should one rule when power and wealth invite a lack of accountability?

Note: The OET-RV is still only a first draft, and so far only a few words have been (mostly automatically) matched to the Hebrew or Greek words that they’re translated from.
Acknowledgements: The Hebrew text, lemmas, and morphology are all thanks to the OSHB and some of the glosses are from Macula Hebrew.
