LAM 3:65 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 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 / metonymy

(Occurrence 0) You will let their hearts be shameless

(Some words not found in UHB: give to/for=them anguish heart curse,your to/for=them )

Here the “heart” is a metonym that represents their attitudes and emotions, and being “shameless” means not feeling ashamed of their sins even though they should. Their not being ashamed would give even more reason for God to punish them. Alternate translation: “You will let them feel no shame for their sins”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns

(Occurrence 0) May your condemnation be upon them

(Some words not found in UHB: give to/for=them anguish heart curse,your to/for=them )

If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea behind the word condemnation, you can express the same idea with the verbs “condemn” or “curse.” Alternate translation: “Condemn them” or “Curse them”
