JOB 19:9 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 / metaphor

כְּ֭בוֹדִ⁠י מֵ⁠עָלַ֣⁠י הִפְשִׁ֑יט

glory,my from,on,me stripped

Job is speaking as if the glory or honor that he formerly had were literally an article of clothing that God had stripped from him. If it would be clearer in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “He has taken away the honor that I formerly had”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

וַ֝⁠יָּ֗סַר עֲטֶ֣רֶת רֹאשִֽׁ⁠י

and,removed crown my=head

Job is speaking as if he had formerly been wearing an actual crown, a symbol of ruling authority, and that God had removed that crown from his head. If it would be clearer in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “yes, he has deprived me of the authority I once had”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / possession

עֲטֶ֣רֶת רֹאשִֽׁ⁠י

crown my=head

Job is using this possessive form to speak symbolically of a crown that he once wore on his head. In the context, the phrase the crown of my head does not mean the very top of Job’s head. Alternate translation: “the crown that I once wore on my head”
