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

אֱ֭לוֹהַּ לֹא־יָשִׁ֣יב אַפּ֑⁠וֹ

god not turn_back anger,his

See how you translated the word nose in verse 5. Alternate translation: “God will not turn aside his anger”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

אֱ֭לוֹהַּ לֹא־יָשִׁ֣יב אַפּ֑⁠וֹ

god not turn_back anger,his

Job is speaking as if God might literally make his anger turn aside and go in a different direction. Job is actually describing how God might stop being angry (although in this case he would not). If it would be clearer in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “God will not stop being angry”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / doublenegatives

אֱ֭לוֹהַּ לֹא־יָשִׁ֣יב אַפּ֑⁠וֹ

god not turn_back anger,his

If it would be clearer in your language, you could translate this as a positive expression. Alternate translation: “God will still have anger”

Note 4 topic: translate-names

רָֽהַב

rahab

The word Rahab is another name for the sea monster. See the General Introduction to Job for a discussion of the sea monster, and see how you translated the name Leviathan in 3:8. Alternate translation: “the sea monster that is associated with chaos”

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

עֹ֣זְרֵי רָֽהַב

helpers rahab

When Job speaks of the helpers of Rahab, he likely means ocean waves, since he says in 9:8, in a context of overcoming chaos, that God treads on the waves of the sea. Alternate translation: “the chaotic ocean waves”

Note 6 topic: figures-of-speech / personification

תחת⁠ו שָׁ֝חֲח֗וּ

beneath,him bowed

Job is speaking of the helpers of Rahab, most likely meaning the waves of the sea, as if they were a living thing that could bow to God. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “are under his control”
