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 / abstractnouns

רָעָ֑ה & טֽוֹב

misfortune & good

If your language does not use abstract nouns for the ideas of Evil and goodness, you could express the same ideas in other ways. See how you translated Evil in 1:16. Alternate translation: “What is evil … what is good”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / personification

תְּרַדֵּ֣ף

pursues

Here Solomon refers to sinners experiencing Evil as if Evil were a person who could pursue them. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “will happen to” or “will be experienced by”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / personification

יְשַׁלֶּם

rewarded

Here Solomon refers to righteous ones experiencing goodness as if goodness were a person who could reward them. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “will happen to” or “will be experienced by”
