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

מְכַסֶּ֣ה

conceals

See how you translated the same use of covers in 10:6.

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / possession

שִׂפְתֵי־שָׁ֑קֶר

lips lying

Here Solomon is using the possessive form to describe lips that are characterized by falsehood. If your language would not use the possessive form for this, you could use a different expression. Alternate translation: “has false lips”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy

שִׂפְתֵי

lips

Here, lips refers to what people say by moving their lips. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “tells”

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / gendernotations

ה֣וּא

he/it

Although the term he is masculine, Solomon is using the word in a generic sense that could refer to either a man or woman. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a phrase that makes this clear. Alternate translation: “that person”
