Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / imperative
שִׁבְתָּ֤ם וְקִֽימָתָם֙ הַבִּ֔יטָה
(Some words not found in UHB: down,their_sitting and,their_rising_of,up look,at I mocking_song_of,[am]_their )
The writer is using the imperative form Look to make a polite request to God rather than to give a command. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express this with a different form that communicates a polite request. Alternate translation: [Please observe their sitting and their rising]
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / merism
שִׁבְתָּ֤ם וְקִֽימָתָם֙
(Some words not found in UHB: down,their_sitting and,their_rising_of,up look,at I mocking_song_of,[am]_their )
The writer is referring to everything his enemies do by naming two major components, their sitting and their rising. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use an equivalent expression or plain language. Alternate translation: [everything they 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.
Acknowledgements: The Hebrew text, lemmas, and morphology are all thanks to the OSHB and some of the glosses are from Macula Hebrew.
