Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / hendiadys
וַתַּ֥עַן & וַתֹּאמַ֑ר
and,answered & and=she/it_said
Here a single idea is being expressed by using two words connected with “and.” Together the two words mean that Esther responded to the question that the king asked her. Alternate translation: “answered” or “replied”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / doublet
שְׁאֵלָתִ֖י וּבַקָּשָׁתִֽי
petition,my and,request,my
The words petition and request mean the same thing. Esther probably used these words together as a way of speaking very formally and respectfully to the king. Alternate translation: “this is what I want”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns
שְׁאֵלָתִ֖י וּבַקָּשָׁתִֽי
petition,my and,request,my
The two abstract nouns petition and request can be expressed with a single phrase using the verb “want.” Alternate translation: “this is what I want”
Note: The OET-RV is still only a first draft, and so far only a few words have been (mostly automatically) matched to the Greek words that they’re translated from.
