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.

38:22-23 Snow and hail are kept in divine storehouses such as those for the deep seas and winds (Pss 33:7; 135:7; Jer 10:13; 51:16). God uses these elements as weapons (Job 36:32; Isa 30:30; Ezek 13:11-13; Rev 16:21) in the storms he sends on the day of battle and war (e.g., Josh 10:11; Judg 5:20-21; 1 Sam 7:10).
Note 1 topic: writing-pronouns
אֲשֶׁר־חָשַׂ֥כְתִּי
which/who reserved
The pronoun which refers to both the “snow” and the “hail” that Yahweh mentioned in the previous verse, but especially to the hail, which he used to defeat his enemies in battles such as the one described in [Joshua 10:1–15](../jos/10/01.md). It may be helpful to clarify this for your readers, and it may be helpful to begin a new sentence here. Alternate translation: [I keep snow and especially hail]
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns
לְעֶת־צָ֑ר
for,time_of trouble
If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea of trouble, you could express the same idea in another way. Alternate translation: [for a time when people are fighting]
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom
לְי֥וֹם קְ֝רָ֗ב וּמִלְחָמָֽה
for,day_of battle and,war
Yahweh is using the term day to refer to a specific time. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [for a time when there is battle and war]
Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / doublet
קְ֝רָ֗ב וּמִלְחָמָֽה
battle and,war
The terms battle and war mean similar things. Yahweh is using the two terms together for emphasis. If it would be clearer for your readers, you could express the emphasis with a single phrase. Alternate translation: [great warfare]
