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.

Oh
(Some words not found in UHB: give_thanks to/for=YHWH that/for/because/then/when good that/for/because/then/when to,forever steadfast_love,his )
This is an exclamation that should be translated with whatever exclamation of emphasis you have in your language to make it sound natural.
give thanks to Yahweh; for he is good
(Some words not found in UHB: give_thanks to/for=YHWH that/for/because/then/when good that/for/because/then/when to,forever steadfast_love,his )
“thank Yahweh because of the good things he does.” See how you translated this in Psalms 118:1.
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns
his covenant faithfulness endures forever
(Some words not found in UHB: give_thanks to/for=YHWH that/for/because/then/when good that/for/because/then/when to,forever steadfast_love,his )
If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea behind the word faithfulness, you could express the same idea with an adjective. See how you translated this in Psalms 118:1–2. Alternate translation: “he remains faithful to his covenant forever”
