PRO 6:13 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.

קֹרֵ֣ץ בְּ֭⁠עֵינָ⁠ו מֹלֵ֣ל בְּ⁠רַגְלָ֑⁠ו מֹ֝רֶ֗ה בְּ⁠אֶצְבְּעֹתָֽי⁠ו

winking in/on/at/with,eyes,his signals in/on/at/with,feet,his pointing in/on/at/with,fingers,his

Solomon is leaving out some of the words that in many languages a sentence would need in order to be complete. You could supply these words from the previous verse if it would be clearer in your language. You may need to start a new sentence. Alternate translation: “He is one who winks with his eye, one who rubs with his foot, and one who points with his fingers”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / gendernotations

קֹרֵ֣ץ בְּ֭⁠עֵינָ⁠ו מֹלֵ֣ל בְּ⁠רַגְלָ֑⁠ו מֹ֝רֶ֗ה בְּ⁠אֶצְבְּעֹתָֽי⁠ו

winking in/on/at/with,eyes,his signals in/on/at/with,feet,his pointing in/on/at/with,fingers,his

Although the term his is masculine, Solomon is using the word in a generic sense that includes both men and women. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a phrase that make this clear. Alternate translation: “one who winks with one’s eye, one who rubs with one’s foot, one who points with one’s fingers”

Note 3 topic: translate-symaction

קֹרֵ֣ץ בְּ֭⁠עֵינָ⁠ו מֹלֵ֣ל בְּ⁠רַגְלָ֑⁠ו מֹ֝רֶ֗ה בְּ⁠אֶצְבְּעֹתָֽי⁠ו

winking in/on/at/with,eyes,his signals in/on/at/with,feet,his pointing in/on/at/with,fingers,his

These three clauses refer to actions that someone uses when deceiving people. If this would not be clear to your readers, you could explain the significance of these actions in the text or in a footnote. Alternate translation: “one who winks with his eye, rubs with his foot, and points with his fingers to deceive people”
