JOB 27:22 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 / personification

וְ⁠יַשְׁלֵ֣ךְ עָ֭לָי⁠ו וְ⁠לֹ֣א יַחְמֹ֑ל

and,hurls on/upon/above=him/it and=not mercy

Job is speaking of this wind as if it were a living thing that could hurl itself upon a wicked person and not pity him, that is, not show him any mercy. If you decided to represent this image as a comparison in the previous two verses, you can continue to do that in this verse. Alternate translation: [It is as if a violent wind is blowing against him relentlessly]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / reduplication

בָּר֥וֹחַ יִבְרָֽח

in_headlong_flight flee

Job is repeating the verb “flee” in order to intensify the idea that it expresses. The specific sense here is that the wicked person is trying desperately to flee from this strong wind. 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: [he tries desperately to escape] or [it is as if he is trying desperately to escape]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy

מִ֝⁠יָּד֗⁠וֹ

from,power_of,its

Here, hand represents power. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use an equivalent expression or state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [from its power]
