JOB 25:2 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: writing-pronouns

הַמְשֵׁ֣ל וָ⁠פַ֣חַד עִמּ֑⁠וֹ

dominion and,dread with=him/it

The pronoun him refers to God. It may be helpful to clarify this for your readers. Alternate translation: “Dominion and awe are with God” or “God possesses dominion and awe”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / hendiadys

הַמְשֵׁ֣ל וָ⁠פַ֣חַד עִמּ֑⁠וֹ

dominion and,dread with=him/it

This phrase expresses a single idea by using two words connected with and. The word fear tells what response God’s Dominion produces in those who recognize its powerful and holy character. (In this context, the word fear describes reverence and respect for God and awe at his greatness.) If it would be more natural in your language, you could express this meaning with an equivalent phrase that does not use “and.” Alternate translation: “Fearful dominion is with him” or “Awesome dominion is with him”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns

הַמְשֵׁ֣ל וָ⁠פַ֣חַד עִמּ֑⁠וֹ

dominion and,dread with=him/it

If your language does not use abstract nouns for the ideas of Dominion and fear, you could express the same ideas in other ways. Alternate translation: “God rules in a way that inspires great respect”

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

עֹשֶׂ֥ה שָׁ֝ל֗וֹם בִּ⁠מְרוֹמָֽי⁠ו

producing peace in/on/at/with,heights,his

The word translated peace could mean: (1) harmonious order. Alternate translation: “the one who establishes harmonious order” (2) the absence of conflict. Alternate translation: “the one who rules without opposition” or “the one who rules without rebellion”

Note 5 topic: translate-plural

בִּ⁠מְרוֹמָֽי⁠ו

in/on/at/with,heights,his

See how you translated the same expression in 16:19. Alternate translation: “in his highest heaven” or “in heaven, where he rules supremely”
