Note 1 topic: writing-pronouns
עָר֣וֹם שְׁא֣וֹל נֶגְדּ֑וֹ
naked sheol before,him
As the General Notes to this chapter discuss, the pronoun him in this verse refers to God, as do the pronouns “he,” “him,” and “his” throughout the chapter. It may be helpful to clarify this for your readers, here and at selected other places in the chapter. Alternate translation: “Sheol is naked before God”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor
עָר֣וֹם שְׁא֣וֹל נֶגְדּ֑וֹ
naked sheol before,him
Job is speaking of Sheol as if it were literally not wearing any clothing. If it would be clearer in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “Sheol is open before God” or “God can look right into Sheol”
Note 3 topic: translate-names
וְאֵ֥ין כְּ֝ס֗וּת לָֽאֲבַדּֽוֹן
and,no covering has_THE,abaddon
The word Abaddon, which means “destruction,” is another name for Sheol.
Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor
וְאֵ֥ין כְּ֝ס֗וּת לָֽאֲבַדּֽוֹן
and,no covering has_THE,abaddon
Job is speaking as if it might be possible to put an actual covering over Abaddon to keep God from seeing into it. If it would be clearer in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “and nothing keeps God from seeing into Abaddon”
26:5-6 The underworld (Hebrew Sheol), the abode of all the dead, is located beneath the waters of the sea.
• The place of destruction (Hebrew Abaddon) existed specifically for the wicked.
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.
