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 / genericnoun

הוֹלֵ֣ךְ & וְ⁠נֶעְקַ֥שׁ

walks & and,crooked

The phrases One who walks and one who is crooked refer to types of people in general, not specific people. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use more natural expressions. Alternate translation: “Any person who walks … but any person who is crooked”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

הוֹלֵ֣ךְ תָּ֭מִים

walks entire/complete/moral

Here Solomon refers to someone behaving in a blameless manner as if that person walks blameless. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express the meaning plainly. See how you translated a similar use of “walk” in 3:23. Alternate translation: “One who conducts his life in a blameless manner”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

יִוָּשֵׁ֑עַ

safe

If your language does not use this passive form, you could express the idea in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. The context implies that Yahweh will do the action. Alternate translation: “Yahweh will save”
