OET (OET-LV) [fn] they_will_return wicked_[people] to_sheol_to all [the]_nations forgetful of_god.
9:18 Note: KJB: Ps.9.17
Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive
לֹ֣א לָ֭נֶצַח יִשָּׁכַ֣ח אֶבְי֑וֹן
(Some words not found in UHB: return wicked to,sheol,to all/each/any/every nations forget ʼElohīm )
If your language does not use the passive form in this way, you can state this in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. Alternate translation: “God will not always forget the needy”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / litotes
לֹ֣א לָ֭נֶצַח יִשָּׁכַ֣ח אֶבְי֑וֹן
(Some words not found in UHB: return wicked to,sheol,to all/each/any/every nations forget ʼElohīm )
The figure of speech here expresses a strongly positive meaning by using a negative word, not, together with an expression that is the opposite of the intended meaning. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express the positive meaning. Alternate translation: “the needy will be remembered eventually”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
תִּקְוַ֥ת ענוים תֹּאבַ֥ד לָעַֽד
(Some words not found in UHB: return wicked to,sheol,to all/each/any/every nations forget ʼElohīm )
The negation in the first clause of this verse carries over to the second half. Translate this in a way that both halves of the verse are negated (but making a positive statement by litotes as the previous note explains). Alternate translation: “indeed, the hope of the afflicted will not perish forever” or “neither will the hope of the afflicted perish forever” or (assuming the first half is translated positively) “the hope of the afflicted lives on”
Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor
תִּקְוַ֥ת ענוים תֹּאבַ֥ד לָעַֽד
(Some words not found in UHB: return wicked to,sheol,to all/each/any/every nations forget ʼElohīm )
Here, hope is spoken of as if it was something that could perish. This would mean that what they hope for does not happen. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “nor will the oppressed hope forever without results” or “someday what the afflicted hope for will happen”
9:18 Hope requires waiting for the Lord’s rescue or justice (25:3, 5, 21). The godly find hope, rest, and quietness as they await the Lord (see 1:6; 27:14).
OET (OET-LV) [fn] they_will_return wicked_[people] to_sheol_to all [the]_nations forgetful of_god.
9:18 Note: KJB: Ps.9.17
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.
