PSA 146:3 Parallel Verse View

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.

UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom

בְּ⁠בֶן־אָדָ֓ם

(Some words not found in UHB: not put_~_trust in,noble_[people] in,a_child_of humankind whom,there_[is]_not to=him/it save )

The psalmist is using the phrase the son of man as a common expression of the culture to mean a human being. If this phrase does not have that meaning for your readers, you could use a comparable expression from your language that does have that meaning, or you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [in any human being]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns

תְשׁוּעָֽה

save

If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea of salvation, you could express the same idea in another way. Alternate translation: [ability to save]
