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.

BrLXX Καὶ εἶπε Δαλιδά, ἀλλόφυλοι ἐπὶ σὲ Σαμψών. καὶ ἐξυπνίσθη ἐκ τοῦ ὕπνου αὐτοῦ, καὶ εἶπεν, ἐξελεύσομαι ὡς ἅπαξ καὶ ἅπαξ, καὶ ἐκτιναχθήσομαι· καὶ αὐτὸς οὐκ ἔγνω ὅτι ὁ Κύριος ἀπέστη ἀπάνωθεν αὐτοῦ.

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / events
אֵצֵ֞א כְּפַ֤עַם בְּפַ֨עַם֙ וְאִנָּעֵ֔ר
go_out as,time in/on/at/with,time and,shake_~_free
Samson is describing one event before describing another event that would precede it. In your translation, you may wish to relate these events in the order in which they happened. Alternate translation: [I will shake myself and go out like time upon time]
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom
כְּפַ֤עַם בְּפַ֨עַם֙
as,time in/on/at/with,time
Samson is using a common expression to mean that he would do what he had done previously. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [like all the other times] or [as I did before]
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
וְאִנָּעֵ֔ר
and,shake_~_free
Samson seems to be saying that he will shake himself free from bonds of some kind. This suggests implicitly that Delilah or the man who shaved Samson also bound him in some way while he was still sleeping. You could indicate this explicitly in your translation if that would be helpful to your readers. Alternate translation: [and I will shake myself free of these bonds that someone has put on me]
Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor
יְהוָ֖ה סָ֥ר מֵעָלָֽיו
YHWH left from,on,him
The author is speaking as if Yahweh had physically turned away from Samson. If it would be clearer in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [Yahweh was no longer giving him great strength]
