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.

The meaning of the second part of this verse is debated by experts. It could mean (1) that the city is build well in order to protect those who live in the city. Alternate translation: “bound together firmly” or (2) that the city is compact, and that the buildings are built close together. Alternate translation: “that is compact together”

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

הַ⁠בְּנוּיָ֑ה

If your language does not use the passive form in this way, you could express the idea in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. If you must state who did the action, the author implies that people did it. Alternate translation: “which people built”
