JOB 13:2 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.

UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / yousingular

כְּֽ֭⁠דַעְתְּ⁠כֶם & מִ⁠כֶּֽם

as,what_~_know,you_all & to,you_all

The word you is plural here and through verse 13 because Job is addressing his three friends, so use the plural form in your translation if your language marks that distinction.

Note 2 topic: writing-pronouns

יָדַ֣עְתִּי גַם־אָ֑נִי לֹא־נֹפֵ֖ל אָנֹכִ֣י

I_know also/even I not inferior I

For emphasis, Job is stating the pronoun I, whose meaning is already present in the words translated know and falling. If your language can state implied pronouns explicitly for emphasis, you may want to use that construction here in your translation. Other languages may have other ways of bringing out this emphasis, for example, by using the intensive pronoun “myself.” Alternate translation: “I myself also know. I myself am not falling”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

לֹא־נֹפֵ֖ל אָנֹכִ֣י מִ⁠כֶּֽם

not inferior I to,you_all

See how you translated the similar expression in 12:3. Alternate translation: “I do not fall short of you” or “I am not inferior to you”
