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.

If it would be more natural in your language, you may want to put the information that the arrows are in the heart of the enemies of the king with the information that the arrows are sharp. Alternate translation: [Your arrows are sharp in the heart of the enemies of the king; the peoples fall under you]

Alternate translation: [Your arrows are in the heart of the enemies of the king] or [Your arrows penetrate into the heart of the enemies of the king]
