18:29 OSHB note: BHS has been faithful to the Leningrad Codex where there might be a question of the validity of the form and we keep the same form as BHS.
OET (OET-RV) But the Israeli people insist, ‘The master’s way isn’t fair!’ How is my way not fair, you Israeli people? It’s your ways that aren’t fair.
Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy
(Occurrence 0) house of Israel
(Some words not found in UHB: and,they_say house_of Yisrael not fair road/way_of my=master ?,ways_of,my not fair house_of Yisrael ?,not ways_of,your(pl) not right )
The word “house” is a metonym for the family that lives in the house, in this case the Israelites, the descendants of Jacob over many years. See how you translated this in Ezekiel 3:1. Alternate translation: [the Israelite people group]
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor
(Occurrence 0) The way of the Lord is not fair … How is my way not fair … It is your ways that are not fair
(Some words not found in UHB: and,they_say house_of Yisrael not fair road/way_of my=master ?,ways_of,my not fair house_of Yisrael ?,not ways_of,your(pl) not right )
Actions or behaviors are spoken of as if they were a way or path that a person travels. Alternate translation: [The Lord does not act fairly … How do I not act fairly … It is you who do not act fairly]

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.
