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.

Arouse yourself and awake

(Some words not found in UHB: wake_up, and,rise, to,defense_of,my God_of,my and,Lord_of,my for,cause_of,my )

This does not mean that God is actually asleep. The writer wants God to intervene. Both words mean basically the same thing and emphasize the urgency of this request. Alternate translation: “I feel like you are sleeping! Wake up” (See also: figs-doublet)

to my defense

(Some words not found in UHB: wake_up, and,rise, to,defense_of,my God_of,my and,Lord_of,my for,cause_of,my )

This abstract noun “defense” can be stated as “defend.” Alternate translation: “to defend me”

my cause

(Some words not found in UHB: wake_up, and,rise, to,defense_of,my God_of,my and,Lord_of,my for,cause_of,my )
