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: figures-of-speech / metaphor
אֲשֶֽׁר־קֻמְּט֥וּ
they snatched_away
Eliphaz is speaking as if these “men of iniquity” were literally carried off as if they were a bundle of sticks that someone had collected. He means that they died. If it would be clearer in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “who died”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive
אֲשֶֽׁר־קֻמְּט֥וּ
they snatched_away
If your language does not use this passive form, you could express the idea in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. Alternate translation: “whom death carried off”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
וְלֹא־עֵ֑ת
and=not time
Eliphaz implicitly means that these wicked men died before it was their time to die. You could indicate that in your translation if it would be helpful to your readers. Alternate translation: “before it was their time to die” or “while they were still young”
Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive
נָ֝הָ֗ר יוּצַ֥ק יְסוֹדָֽם
river washed_away foundations,their
If your language does not use this passive form, you could express the idea in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. Alternate translation: “a torrent washed away their foundations”
Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor
נָ֝הָ֗ר יוּצַ֥ק יְסוֹדָֽם
river washed_away foundations,their
Eliphaz is speaking as if these wicked men were buildings that collapsed when a torrent of water destroyed their foundations. The suggestion in the image is that the men died unexpectedly and violently. If it would be clearer in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “yes, they died unexpectedly and violently”
