uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

הֶ֖בֶל

Abel

Solomon is speaking as if the situation he is about to describe were a vapor. He means that it is fleeting and insubstantial. Your language may have a comparable expression that you can use in your translation, or you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [something fleeting and insubstantial]

Note 2 topic: writing-pronouns

וְ⁠שַׁ֧בְתִּי אֲנִ֛י

and,I_returned I

The pronoun I refers to Solomon, the Teacher. Here it is stated separately from the verb for emphasis. It may be helpful to clarify this for your readers.

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.OET logo mark
