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 / rquestion

אַתָּ֣ה אָמַ֔רְתָּ אֲדֹנִיָּ֖הוּ יִמְלֹ֣ךְ אַחֲרָ֑⁠י וְ⁠ה֖וּא יֵשֵׁ֥ב עַל־כִּסְאִֽ⁠י

you(ms) said ʼAdoniy\sup_yāh be_king after,me and=he sit on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in throne,my

Nathan is using the question form to inform David that Adonijah is acting as if David named him the next king. If you would not use the question form for this purpose in your language, you could translate this as a statement or an exclamation. Alternate translation: “Adonijah is acting as if you yourself said, ‘Adonijah will reign after me, and he will sit on my throne.’”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / quotations

אַתָּ֣ה אָמַ֔רְתָּ אֲדֹנִיָּ֖הוּ יִמְלֹ֣ךְ אַחֲרָ֑⁠י וְ⁠ה֖וּא יֵשֵׁ֥ב עַל־כִּסְאִֽ⁠י

you(ms) said ʼAdoniy\sup_yāh be_king after,me and=he sit on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in throne,my

It may be more natural in your language to have an indirect quotation here. Alternate translation: “have you yourself said that Adonijah will reign after you and sit on your throne”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / parallelism

אֲדֹנִיָּ֖הוּ יִמְלֹ֣ךְ אַחֲרָ֑⁠י וְ⁠ה֖וּא יֵשֵׁ֥ב עַל־כִּסְאִֽ⁠י

ʼAdoniy\sup_yāh be_king after,me and=he sit on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in throne,my

These two clauses mean basically the same thing. The second emphasizes the meaning of the first by repeating the same idea with different words. If it would be helpful to your readers, you could connect the clauses with a word other than and in order to show that the second clause is repeating the first one, not saying something additional. See how you expressed the similar form in 1:13. Alternatively, you could combine the two clauses. Alternate translation: “Adonijah will reign after me; yes, he will sit on my throne” or “Adonijah will reign from my throne”

Note 4 topic: translate-symaction

יֵשֵׁ֥ב עַל־כִּסְאִֽ⁠י

sit on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in throne,my

When a person sits on a throne, it indicates that the person has power and rules as king. If it would be helpful in your language, you could explain what this action means. See how you expressed the similar phrase in 1:13. Alternate translation: “will sit on my throne to rule” or “will sit on my throne as king”
