JOB 19:21 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 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 / reduplication

חָנֻּ֬⁠נִי חָנֻּ֣⁠נִי

have_pity_on,me pity,me

Job is repeating the verb Pity in order to intensify the idea that it expresses. If your language can repeat words for intensification, it would be appropriate to do that here in your translation. If not, your language may have another way of expressing the emphasis. Alternate translation: [Please have pity on me]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy

יַד־אֱ֝ל֗וֹהַּ נָ֣גְעָה בִּֽ⁠י

hand_of god struck in/on/at/with,me

Here the hand of God represents the power and activity of God. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use an equivalent expression or state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [God is powerfully afflicting me]
