PSA 44:16 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.

enemy (Some words not found in UHB: from,the_sound_of taunter and,[one_who]_reviles from=face/in_front_of enemy and,an_avenger )

Together, the expressions an enemy and one avenging express a single idea. The expression one avenging tells what kind of enemy the psalmist is describing. If it would be more natural in your language, you could express this meaning in a different way. Alternate translation: [a vengeful enemy]
