JDG 11:37 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.

Quod vero factum est ex præcepto in Isræl, ex diebus in dies conveniebant lamentari filiam Jephte, quatuor dies in anno, non puto significare aliquid post impletum holocaustum, quod erit in vita æterna, sed præterita tempora Ecclesiæ, in quibus erant beati lugentes. Quatriduo figurata est ejus universitas: propter quatuor partes orbis per quas longe lateque diffusa est. Ad historiæ autem proprietatem non arbitror hoc decrevisse Isrælitas, nisi quia intelligebant in ea judicium Dei magis ad percutiendum patrem fuisse ostensum, ne quis deinceps voveret tale sacrificium. Quare enim lamentatio decreta est, si votum illud lætitiæ est?

UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

יֵעָ֥שֶׂה לִּ֖⁠י הַ⁠דָּבָ֣ר הַ⁠זֶּ֑ה

done to/for=me the,thing the=this

If your language does not use this passive form, you could express the idea in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. Alternate translation: [Please do this thing for me]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / explicitinfo

וְ⁠יָרַדְתִּ֣י עַל־הֶֽ⁠הָרִ֔ים

and,wander on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in the,mountains

As the Introduction to Judges discusses, in Hebrew, writers and speakers generally indicated whether people were going up to a higher elevation or going down to a lower elevation when they traveled. The town of Mizpah was located at a high elevation, and Jephthah’s daughter is indicating that she would like to go down from there and wander the hills in the area. You could indicate this explicitly in your translation if that would be helpful to your readers. Alternate translation: [and I will wander the hills in this area]
