PRO 23:10 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 / explicit

אַל־תַּ֭סֵּג גְּב֣וּל עוֹלָ֑ם

not move border ancient

See how you translated this clause in 22:28.

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

וּ⁠בִ⁠שְׂדֵ֥י יְ֝תוֹמִ֗ים אַל־תָּבֹֽא

and,in/on/at/with,fields fatherless not encroach

The connection with the previous clause indicates that the phrase enter into here refers to taking over or using the land that belongs to someone else. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state this explicitly. Alternate translation: “do not take over the fields of fatherless ones” or “do not encroach on the fields of fatherless ones”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

יְ֝תוֹמִ֗ים

fatherless

The phrase fatherless ones refers to children who have lost their fathers and so do not have anyone to protect them. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “children without fathers to protect them”
