PRO 19:9 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.

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / parallelism

עֵ֣ד שְׁ֭קָרִים לֹ֣א יִנָּקֶ֑ה וְ⁠יָפִ֖יחַ כְּזָבִ֣ים יֹאבֵֽד

witness false not go_unpunished and,utters lies perish

These two phrases 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 phrases with a word other than and in order to show that the second phrase is repeating the first one, not saying something additional. Alternate translation: “A witness of falsehoods will not be blameless; yes, one who breathes out lies will perish”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / litotes
