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.

ClVg Qui revelat profunda de tenebris, et producit in lucem umbram mortis.[fn]
(Who revelat profunda about darkness, and producit in the_light umbram mortis. )
12.22 Revelat profunda de tenebris; cum mystici allegoriarum sensus in verbis occultis prophetarum agnoscuntur. Et producit in lucem umbram mortis. Ibid. Umbram mortis dicit, etc., usque ad mors carnis minime timetur.

12:22 uncovers mysteries (literally uncovers the deeps): This phrase might allude to Zophar’s words that God’s knowledge is “deeper than the underworld” (11:8).
• darkness . . . deepest gloom: The Old Testament often describes God as dwelling in darkness (1 Kgs 8:12; 2 Chr 6:1) and as manifesting himself through darkness (2 Sam 22:10, 12; Ps 18:9, 11), as when he gave the law at Sinai (Deut 4:11; 5:22-23) or when he comes in judgment (Zeph 1:15).

מְגַלֶּ֣ה עֲ֭מֻקוֹת מִנִּי־חֹ֑שֶׁךְ וַיֹּצֵ֖א לָא֣וֹר צַלְמָֽוֶת
reveals mysteries out_of darkness and,brings to_the=light deep_darkness
Job is speaking as if God were literally bringing things that were shrouded in darkness into the light where they could be seen. If it would be clearer in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. It may be helpful to begin a new sentence here. Alternate translation: “God reveals deep things that are obscure to humans; yes, he helps people understand things that are unclear”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor
מְגַלֶּ֣ה עֲ֭מֻקוֹת מִנִּי־חֹ֑שֶׁךְ
reveals mysteries out_of darkness
Job is speaking as if things that are difficult to understand are literally deep, that is, far underground where people cannot see them or reach them. If it would be clearer in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “the one revealing the truth about things that are difficult to understand”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / nominaladj
עֲ֭מֻקוֹת
mysteries
Job is using the adjective deep as a noun to mean a certain kind of thing. The term is plural; the ULT shows this by adding the word things. Your language may use adjectives in the same way. If not, you can translate this word with an equivalent phrase. Alternate translation: “things that are profound”
