הַעֵינֵ֣י בָשָׂ֣ר לָ֑ךְ אִם־כִּרְא֖וֹת אֱנ֣וֹשׁ תִּרְאֶֽה
?,eyes flesh/meat to/for=you(fs) if as,sees ʼEnōshh see
Job is using the terms eyes and seeing to mean by association knowing and understanding, since people often discover things by seeing them. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “Do you only know and understand the kinds of things that people can see with their eyes”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / rquestion
הַעֵינֵ֣י בָשָׂ֣ר לָ֑ךְ אִם־כִּרְא֖וֹת אֱנ֣וֹשׁ תִּרְאֶֽה
?,eyes flesh/meat to/for=you(fs) if as,sees ʼEnōshh see
Job is using the question form for emphasis. If you would not use the question form for that purpose in your language, you could translate these questions as statements or as exclamations. Alternate translation: “You do not have eyes of flesh! You do not see according to the seeing of a man!”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy
הַעֵינֵ֣י בָשָׂ֣ר לָ֑ךְ
?,eyes flesh/meat to/for=you(fs)
Job is using the expression of flesh to mean “human,” by association with the way that humans have flesh. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “Do you have human eyes?” or “You do not have human eyes!”
Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom
אִם־כִּרְא֖וֹת אֱנ֣וֹשׁ תִּרְאֶֽה
if as,sees ʼEnōshh see
Job is using the word If to introduce a question that anticipates a negative answer. If it would be helpful to your readers, you could indicate this in your translation. Alternate translation: “You do not see as people see, do you?”
Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / gendernotations
כִּרְא֖וֹת אֱנ֣וֹשׁ
as,sees ʼEnōshh
Here the masculine term man has a generic sense that includes both men and women. If it would be helpful to your readers, you could use language in your translation that is clearly inclusive of both men and women. Alternate translation: “as people do”
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.
