PSA 47:3 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.

UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / parallelism

יַדְבֵּ֣ר עַמִּ֣ים תַּחְתֵּ֑י⁠נוּ וּ֝⁠לְאֻמִּ֗ים תַּ֣חַת רַגְלֵֽי⁠נוּ

(Some words not found in UHB: subdues peoples under,us and,peoples below/instead_of feet_of,our )

These two phrases mean basically the same thing. The second emphasizes the meaning of the first by repeating the same idea with different words. It may be clearer in your language to connect the phrases with a word other than and in order to show that the second phrase is repeating the first one, not saying something additional. Another approach would be to combine the phrases and express the emphasis in another way. See how you as a team have decided to translate the parallel phrases in the Psalms, and do that here and throughout this psalm. Alternate translation: [He has subdued peoples under us, yes, he has subdued nations under our feet] or [He has subdued many nations under our feet]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

יַדְבֵּ֣ר עַמִּ֣ים תַּחְתֵּ֑י⁠נוּ וּ֝⁠לְאֻמִּ֗ים תַּ֣חַת רַגְלֵֽי⁠נוּ

(Some words not found in UHB: subdues peoples under,us and,peoples below/instead_of feet_of,our )

The psalmist is speaking as if Yahweh actually put peoples and nations under the feet of the Israelites. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [He has enabled us to defeat peoples, yes, he has enabled us to defeat nations] or [He has enabled us to defeat many nations]
