1 KI 1:12 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—click on any Bible version abbreviation down the left-hand side to see the verse in more of its context. Normally the OET discourages the reading of individual ‘verses’, but this view is only designed as a tool for Bible-translators and others doing comparisons of different translations—the older translations are further down the page (so you can read up from the bottom to trace the English translation history). The OET segments on this page are still early looks into the drafted texts of the Open English Translation of the Bible—please double-check these texts in advance before using in public.

Note 1 topic: grammar-connect-words-phrases

וְ⁠עַתָּ֕ה

(Some words not found in UHB: and=now come let,me_counsel_you now advice and,save DOM life_of,your and=DOM creature your_son_of,your Shəlomoh/(Solomon) )

And now was an expression that speakers in this culture commonly used to introduce their main topic. Your language may have a comparable expression that you can use in your translation. You could also use plain language. The UST models one way to do that.

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

לְכִ֛י

come

Nathan is not asking Bathsheba to come somewhere. He is saying come to encourage her to do what he suggests. Your language may have a comparable expression that you can use in your translation. Alternate translation: [go ahead]

Note 3 topic: writing-poetry

אִיעָצֵ֥⁠ךְ & עֵצָ֑ה

let,me_counsel_you & advice

Nathan is using a construction in which a verb and its object come from the same root. You may be able to use the same construction in your language to express the meaning here. Alternatively, your language may have another way of saying this. Alternate translation: [let me give you some counsel]

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / imperative

וּ⁠מַלְּטִי֙

(Some words not found in UHB: and=now come let,me_counsel_you now advice and,save DOM life_of,your and=DOM creature your_son_of,your Shəlomoh/(Solomon) )

This is an imperative, but Nathan is using it to describe what the results would be if Bathsheba followed his counsel. Use a form in your language that indicates a result. Alternate translation: [and that way you will be able to escape]
