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.

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / rquestion

(Occurrence 0) is it not themselves whom they are provoking, so that shame is on them?

(Some words not found in UHB: ?,DOM,I they provoking declares YHWH am=not DOM=them to shame faces,their_own )

This question expects a positive answer. It can be expressed as a statement. Alternate translation: “they are provoking themselves, so that shame is on them!” or “they are troubling and bringing shame on themselves!” (See also: figs-rpronouns)

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns

(Occurrence 0) shame is on them

(Some words not found in UHB: ?,DOM,I they provoking declares YHWH am=not DOM=them to shame faces,their_own )

If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea behind the word shame, you can express the same idea with a verbal form such as “shamed.” Alternate translation: “they are shamed”
