OET-LV And_I_saw DOM all_of the_work_of the_ʼElohīm if/because not the_humankind he_is_able to_find_out DOM the_work which it_is_done under the_sun in_that_(to) that the_humankind he_toils to_seek and_not he_will_find_out and_also if the_wise_person he_will_say to_know not he_will_be_able to_find_out.

OET (OET-RV) and I saw everything that God does—
 ⇔ realising that humanity can’t discover everything that’s done in this world—
 ⇔ they’ll try to discover it but fail.
 ⇔ Even if a wise person claimed to know,
 ⇔ they wouldn’t be able to discover it.

None
uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

(Occurrence 0) the work that is done under the sun

(Some words not found in UHB: and,I_saw DOM all/each/any/every work_of the=ʼElohīm that/for/because/then/when not he/it_would_be_able the=humankind to,find_out DOM the,work which/who done under the,sun in,that,(to) which/who toil the=humankind to,seek and=not find and=also if claims the_wise,[person] to=know not he/it_would_be_able to,find_out )

This could mean: (1) “the work that God does under the sun” or (2) “the work that God allows people to do under the sun.”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom

(Occurrence 0) under the sun

(Some words not found in UHB: and,I_saw DOM all/each/any/every work_of the=ʼElohīm that/for/because/then/when not he/it_would_be_able the=humankind to,find_out DOM the,work which/who done under the,sun in,that,(to) which/who toil the=humankind to,seek and=not find and=also if claims the_wise,[person] to=know not he/it_would_be_able to,find_out )

This refers to things that are done on earth. See how you translated this in Ecclesiastes 1:3. Alternate translation: [on the earth]

OET-LV And_I_saw DOM all_of the_work_of the_ʼElohīm if/because not the_humankind he_is_able to_find_out DOM the_work which it_is_done under the_sun in_that_(to) that the_humankind he_toils to_seek and_not he_will_find_out and_also if the_wise_person he_will_say to_know not he_will_be_able to_find_out.

OET (OET-RV) and I saw everything that God does—
 ⇔ realising that humanity can’t discover everything that’s done in this world—
 ⇔ they’ll try to discover it but fail.
 ⇔ Even if a wise person claimed to know,
 ⇔ they wouldn’t be able to discover it.

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
