JDG 9:11 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 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.

וַ⁠תֹּ֤אמֶר לָ⁠הֶם֙ הַ⁠תְּאֵנָ֔ה הֶ⁠חֳדַ֨לְתִּי֙ אֶת־מָתְקִ֔⁠י וְ⁠אֶת־תְּנוּבָתִ֖⁠י הַ⁠טּוֹבָ֑ה וְ⁠הָ֣לַכְתִּ֔י לָ⁠נ֖וּעַ עַל־הָ⁠עֵצִֽים

and=she/it_said to/for=them the,fig_tree the,leave DOM sweetness,my and=DOM fruit,my the,good and,go to,sway on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in the,trees

If it would be clearer in your language, you could translate this so that there is not a quotation within a quotation. Alternate translation: “But the fig tree asked them whether it should discontinue its sweetness and its good fruit in order to go wave over the trees.”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / rquestion

הֶ⁠חֳדַ֨לְתִּי֙ אֶת־מָתְקִ֔⁠י וְ⁠אֶת־תְּנוּבָתִ֖⁠י הַ⁠טּוֹבָ֑ה וְ⁠הָ֣לַכְתִּ֔י לָ⁠נ֖וּעַ עַל־הָ⁠עֵצִֽים

the,leave DOM sweetness,my and=DOM fruit,my the,good and,go to,sway on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in the,trees

See how you translated the similar question in 9:9. Alternate translation: “I am not going to discontinue my sweetness and my good fruit in order to go wave over the trees!”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns

אֶת־מָתְקִ֔⁠י וְ⁠אֶת־תְּנוּבָתִ֖⁠י הַ⁠טּוֹבָ֑ה

DOM sweetness,my and=DOM fruit,my the,good

If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea of sweetness, you could express the same idea in another way. (The tree is expressing a single idea by using two phrases connected with and.) Alternate translation: “my good, sweet fruit”

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

וְ⁠הָ֣לַכְתִּ֔י לָ⁠נ֖וּעַ עַל־הָ⁠עֵצִֽים

and,go to,sway on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in the,trees

See how you translated the same expression in 9:9.
