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.

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / aside
זָכְרָה־לִּ֥י אֱלֹהַ֖י לְטוֹבָ֑ה
remember, to/for=me God,my for,good
As in 4:4, here Nehemiah speaks directly to God. You could indicate this by putting this verse in quotation marks. Review the note at 4:4 about asides like this if that would be helpful.
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom
זָכְרָה־לִּ֥י & לְטוֹבָ֑ה
remember, to/for=me & for,good
To remember someone for good is an idiom that means to reward someone with good things for the good that they have done.
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom
זָכְרָה־לִּ֥י אֱלֹהַ֖י לְטוֹבָ֑ה
remember, to/for=me God,my for,good
In this context, remember means to think about someone and consider what action you can take on their behalf. Nehemiah is not suggesting that God has forgotten him. Alternate translation: “think of me”
כֹּ֥ל אֲשֶׁר־עָשִׂ֖יתִי עַל־הָעָ֥ם הַזֶּֽה
all which/who done on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in the,people the,this
Nehemiah is once again leaving out some words that a sentence would ordinarily need. He is asking God to do good things for him because of all the good things he has done for the people of Judah as their governor. Alternate translation: “reward me because of all the good that I have done for the people of Judah”
