PSA 20:6 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.

You may be used to indicating when David is referring to himself in the third person by saying something such as “me, his anointed.” However, we recommend that you not do that in this instance, since the term anointed here refers to others besides David.

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

מְשִׁ֫יח֥⁠וֹ

David assumes that readers will know that his anointed refers to the king of Israel, whom God had chosen and set apart by anointing with oil. You could say that explicitly if that would be helpful to your readers. Alternate translation: [his anointed king]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

מְשִׁ֫יח֥⁠וֹ

The expression his anointed is a passive verbal form. If it would be unnatural to use that form, you could express the idea in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. If you need to say who does the action, the context indicates that it is Yahweh. Alternate translation: [the one whom he had anointed]

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy

בִּ֝⁠גְבֻר֗וֹת יֵ֣שַׁע יְמִינֽ⁠וֹ

Here, right hand represents the power of Yahweh. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use an equivalent expression or state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [with mighty deeds by his great power to save]

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns

בִּ֝⁠גְבֻר֗וֹת יֵ֣שַׁע יְמִינֽ⁠וֹ

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: [with mighty deeds of his saving right hand]
