OET (OET-LV) If/because who is_the_one_who he_is_united[fn] to all_of the_living there_is hope if/because to_dog living it is_good more_than the_lion the_dead.

9:4 OSHB variant note: יבחר: (x-qere) ’יְחֻבַּ֔ר’: lemma_2266 n_1.1 morph_HVPi3ms id_21t8g יְחֻבַּ֔ר

OET (OET-RV) Anyone who’s joined to the living has hope,
 ⇔ because a dog that’s alive is better than a lion that’s dead,

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / nominaladj

(Occurrence 0) the living

(Some words not found in UHB: that/for/because/then/when who? which/who joined to/towards all/each/any/every the,living has hope that/for/because/then/when to,dog he/it_lived he/it good from/more_than the,lion the,dead )

This refers to people who are alive. Alternate translation: “who are alive”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / simile

(Occurrence 0) just as a living dog is better than a dead lion

(Some words not found in UHB: that/for/because/then/when who? which/who joined to/towards all/each/any/every the,living has hope that/for/because/then/when to,dog he/it_lived he/it good from/more_than the,lion the,dead )

A “dog” was considered a lowly animal while a lion was considered a noble animal. This speaks of it being better to be lowly and alive than to be considered noble and dead. Alternate translation: “It is better to be lowly like a dog and to be alive than to be noble like a lion and to be dead”

TSN Tyndale Study Notes:

9:4-6 The hope for enjoyment is only as alive as the one who is hoping. In this sense, it is better to be alive (cp. 6:3; 7:1).

9:4 OSHB variant note: יבחר: (x-qere) ’יְחֻבַּ֔ר’: lemma_2266 n_1.1 morph_HVPi3ms id_21t8g יְחֻבַּ֔ר

OET (OET-RV) Anyone who’s joined to the living has hope,
 ⇔ because a dog that’s alive is better than a lion that’s dead,

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.
