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.

TSNTyndale Study Notes:

121:4 God watches over his own, even and especially when they face many troubles (12:5, 7; 69:29; 91:14; 146:9).


UTNuW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

הִנֵּ֣ה

see/lo/see!

The second speaker is using the term behold to focus the first speaker‘s attention on what he is about to say. Your language may have a comparable expression that you could use in your translation. Alternate translation: “Pay attention to this:”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / parallelism

לֹֽא־יָ֭נוּם וְ⁠לֹ֣א יִישָׁ֑ן

not slumber and=not sleep

These two phrases mean basically the same thing. Translate them according to the decisions your team has made regarding translating parallelism in Hebrew poetry. See the book introduction for more information. Alternate translation: “will never slumber nor will he ever sleep” or “will never sleep”
