JDG 9:53 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: writing-participants

אִשָּׁ֥ה אַחַ֛ת

woman/wife one(fs)

The author is using the phrase one woman to introduce this woman as a participant in the story. While she has only a brief role, it is an important one. If your language has its own way of introducing new participants, you can use it here in your translation. Alternate translation: [a certain woman]

Note 2 topic: translate-unknown

פֶּ֥לַח רֶ֖כֶב

grinding_stone_of upper

A millstone was a large, flat, round stone that was used to grind grain. Two of these stones were used together, with the grain between them. The upper millstone was the top one that was rolled on the lower one to crush the grain. If your readers would not be familiar with this object, in your translation you could use the name of a similar thing that your readers would recognize, or you could use a general expression. Alternate translation: [a heavy stone]
