PSA 30:11 Parallel Verse View

Note: This view shows ‘verses’ which are not 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 / explicit

פִּתַּ֥חְתָּ שַׂקִּ֑⁠י וַֽ⁠תְּאַזְּרֵ֥⁠נִי שִׂמְחָֽה

(Some words not found in UHB: hear YHWH and,show,favor_to_me YHWH be helper to=me )

David assumes that readers will know sackcloth was a coarse material worn as a sign of mourning or distress. You could say that explicitly if that would be helpful to your readers. Alternate translation: [you have removed my mourning clothes and have clothed me with gladness]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy

שִׂמְחָֽה

(Some words not found in UHB: hear YHWH and,show,favor_to_me YHWH be helper to=me )

Here, gladness represents clothing that was worn for joyous occasions that would express gladness. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use an equivalent expression or plain language. Alternate translation: [with celebratory clothes] or [with clothes worn to celebrate]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns

וַֽ⁠תְּאַזְּרֵ֥⁠נִי שִׂמְחָֽה

(Some words not found in UHB: hear YHWH and,show,favor_to_me YHWH be helper to=me )

If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea of gladness, you could express the same idea in another way. Alternate translation: [and have covered me with clothes that show that I am glad] or [and have clothed me with celebratory clothes]
