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.

UTNuW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / genericnoun

שֹׂ֭נַאֲ⁠ךָ הַאֲכִלֵ֣⁠הוּ & הַשְׁקֵ֥⁠הוּ מָֽיִם

enemy,your give_~_toeat,him & give_~_todrink,him water

Here, one who hates you and him refer to a type of person in general, not a specific person. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use more natural expressions. Alternate translation: “any person who hates you … cause that person to eat … cause that person to drink water”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / synecdoche

לָ֑חֶם

food

Here, bread is used to refer to food in general. See how you translated the same use of bread in 9:5.
