JDG 19:4 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.

חֹֽתְנ⁠וֹ֙

father-in-law_of,his

Your language may have its own term or expression for this relationship. If so, use the term your language uses to express this relationship. The UST and ULT demonstrate different ways this relationship is expressed in English.

Note 2 topic: writing-pronouns

וַ⁠יֹּאכְלוּ֙ וַ⁠יִּשְׁתּ֔וּ וַ⁠יָּלִ֖ינוּ שָֽׁם

and,ate and,drank and,spent_the_night there

While the pronoun they probably refers in its first two instances to the Levite, his concubine, his servant, and his father-in-law, in the third instance, it may not include the father-in-law. Since he already lived in the house, the author may not be saying that he was among those who lodged or stayed overnight there. Your language might naturally indicate this distinction in some way.
