PSA 55:13 Parallel Verse View

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.

But it was you

(Some words not found in UHB: that/for/because/then/when not enemy taunts,me and,bear not foe_of,me against,me rises_up and,hide from,him )

The psalmist speaks as though the person who had rebuked and taunted him were there listening to him.

myself, my companion and my close friend

(Some words not found in UHB: that/for/because/then/when not enemy taunts,me and,bear not foe_of,me against,me rises_up and,hide from,him )

This can be divided and a new sentence begun. Alternate translation: “myself. You were my companion and my close friend”
