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: writing-pronouns
אַ֭תָּה תָּפֵ֣ר יִרְאָ֑ה
you(ms) doing_away fear
For emphasis, Eliphaz is stating the pronoun you, whose meaning is already present in the word translated destroy. 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. Alternate translation: “you are completely destroying fear”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
יִרְאָ֑ה
fear
By fear, Eliphaz implicitly means the fear of God, that is, reverent respect for God. You could indicate that in your translation if it would be helpful to your readers. Alternate translation: “the fear of God” or “reverent respect for God”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy
שִׂ֝יחָ֗ה לִפְנֵי־אֵֽל
meditation to=(the)_face_of/in_front_of/before god
Here the word face represents the presence of a person by association with the way people can see the face of someone who is present. Eliphaz is using the term to describe devotion that someone would offer to God as one person to another. Alternate translation: “personal devotion to God”
