OET (OET-RV) Doesn’t your faith give you confidence?
⇔ What about your hope and your integrity?
Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / rquestion
הֲלֹ֣א יִ֭רְאָתְךָ כִּסְלָתֶ֑ךָ תִּ֝קְוָתְךָ֗ וְתֹ֣ם דְּרָכֶֽיךָ
?,not fear,your confidence,your hope,your and,integrity ways,your
In both of these instances, Eliphaz is using the question form for emphasis. If you would not use the question form for this purpose in your language, you could translate these questions as statements or exclamations. Alternate translation: “Your fear should be your confidence! The integrity of your ways should be your hope!”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom
יִ֭רְאָתְךָ
fear,your
In this context, the word fear means respect for God. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “your respect for God”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / ellipsis
תִּ֝קְוָתְךָ֗
hope,your
Eliphaz is leaving out some of the words that in many languages a sentence would need in order to be complete. You can supply these words from the context if that would be clearer in your language. It may be helpful to begin a new sentence here. Alternate translation: “Is not your hope”
Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor
דְּרָכֶֽיךָ
ways,your
Eliphaz is speaking of Job’s practices in life as if they were ways or paths that he was walking on. If it would be clearer in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “your conduct”
OET (OET-RV) Doesn’t your faith give you confidence?
⇔ What about your hope and your integrity?
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.
