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: figures-of-speech / parallelism

(Occurrence 0) hear Yahweh’s word; pay attention to the messages that come from his mouth

(Some words not found in UHB: that/for/because/then/when come_up death in/on/at/with,windows_of,our he/it_came in/on/at/with,fortresses_of,our to,cut_off children from,streets young_men from,squares )

These two phrases mean the same thing and emphasize the command to listen to what Yahweh says. In the second phrase Yahweh’s “mouth” is a metonym for himself. Alternate translation: “listen to what Yahweh says. Pay attention to his words” (See also: figs-metonymy)

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / ellipsis

(Occurrence 0) each neighbor woman a funeral song

The understood verb may be supplied. Alternate translation: “teach each neighbor woman a funeral song”
