PSA 118:136 — alternate verse numbering

About verse numbering: PSA 118:136

Bible versions divide some chapters and verses differently (called “versification”). PSA 118:136 is valid in the numbering listed below, but is outside the OET-RV / English numbering used for the ordinary parallel pages.

In Wycl (Wycliffe-Zefania numbering), PSA 118:136 corresponds to OET-RV / English PSA 119:136.

In BrLXX, BrTr (lxx numbering), PSA 118:136 corresponds to OET-RV / English PSA 119:136.

In ClVg, DRA (vul numbering), PSA 118:136 corresponds to OET-RV / English PSA 119:136.

The page below is a copy of the ordinary OET-RV / English page; its headings and navigation retain that numbering.

Note: This view shows ‘verses’ which are not necessarily natural language units and hence sometimes only part of a sentence will be visible—click on any Bible version abbreviation down the left-hand side to see the verse in more of its context. Normally the OET discourages the reading of individual ‘verses’, but this view is only designed as a tool for Bible-translators and others doing comparisons of different translations—the older translations are further down the page (so you can read up from the bottom to trace the English translation history). The OET segments on this page are still early looks into the drafted texts of the Open English Translation of the Bible—please double-check these texts in advance before using in public.

Text critical issues=none Clarity of original=clear Importance to us=important Speaker(s)=Narrator (All still tentative.)

Note: Automatic aligning of the OET-RV to the LV is done by some temporary software, hence the OET-RV alignments are incomplete (and may occasionally be wrong).

UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

פַּלְגֵי־מַ֭יִם יָרְד֣וּ עֵינָ֑⁠י

(Some words not found in UHB: streams_of waters shed eyes_of,my on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in not keep law_of,your )

Here the psalmist is speaking of his many tears as if they were Streams of water coming out of his eyes. Your language may have a comparable expression that you can use in your translation, or you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [I weep greatly]

Note 2 topic: writing-pronouns

לֹא־שָׁמְר֥וּ תוֹרָתֶֽ⁠ךָ

not (Some words not found in UHB: streams_of waters shed eyes_of,my on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in not keep law_of,your )

Here the psalmist is using the pronoun they in a general sense, not to refer to specific people. Use an expression for this that would be natural in your language. Alternate translation: [people do not keep your law]
