ECC 11:10 Parallel Verse View

Note: This view shows ‘verses’ which are not natural language units and hence sometimes only part of a sentence will be visible. Normally the OET discourages the reading of individual ‘verses’, but this view is only designed as a tool for doing comparisons of different translations. Click on any Bible version abbreviation down the left-hand side to see the verse in more of its context. The OET segments on this page are still very early looks into the unfinished texts of the Open English Translation of the Bible. Please double-check these texts in advance before using in public.

UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

(Occurrence 0) Drive anger away from your heart

(Some words not found in UHB: and,banish provocation from,heart_of,your and,put_away pain from,body_of,your that/for/because/then/when the,youth and,the,prime_of_life Abel )

Refusing to be angry is spoken of as if anger were something that can be forced away. Also, “heart” represents a person’s emotions. Alternate translation: “Refuse to be angry” (See also: figs-metonymy)

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

(Occurrence 0) because youth and its strength are vapor

(Some words not found in UHB: and,banish provocation from,heart_of,your and,put_away pain from,body_of,your that/for/because/then/when the,youth and,the,prime_of_life Abel )

The authors speaks of things as being useless and meaningless as if they were “vapor” Just as vapor disappears and does not last, the author speaks of things having no lasting value. See how you translated “vapor” in [Ecclesiastes 1:14](../01/14.md). Alternate translation: “because youth and its strength will not last forever” or “because you will not be young and strong forever”
