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 / metaphor

יִנְחָ֑לוּ

inherit

Here Solomon speaks of wise people receiving honor as if honor were property or wealth that they could inherit from a family member. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “will receive”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

כָּ֭בוֹד & יִנְחָ֑לוּ

honour & inherit

If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea of honor, you could express the same idea in another way. See how you translated honor in 3:16. Alternate translation: “will be honored” or “will be respected”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

מֵרִ֥ים

stubborn

Here Solomon speaks of stupid people being dishonored as if their dishonor was lifted up for everyone to see. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “will receive”

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns

מֵרִ֥ים קָלֽוֹן

stubborn disgrace

If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea of dishonor, you could express the same idea in another way. Alternate translation: “will be dishonored” or “will be shamed”
