Parallel PSA 38:21

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 as a tool 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.

TSNTyndale Study Notes:

Ps 38 This psalm is a lament and prayer for healing. The psalmist’s suffering is associated with his unconfessed sin. He confesses his sin and entrusts his case to the Lord.


UTNuW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / parallelism

Do not abandon me & do not stay far away from me

(Some words not found in UHB: and,repay_of evil below/instead_of good accuse,me below/instead_of follow,I good )

These two phrases have very similar meanings.

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

do not stay far away from me

(Some words not found in UHB: and,repay_of evil below/instead_of good accuse,me below/instead_of follow,I good )

Because Yahweh has not yet answered the writer’s request, he speaks of Yahweh as if Yahweh were standing far away from the writer.
