PSA 67:2 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: grammar-connect-logic-goal

לָ⁠דַ֣עַת בָּ⁠אָ֣רֶץ דַּרְכֶּ֑⁠ךָ

to=know (Some words not found in UHB: to=know on_the=earth way_of,your in=all nations salvation_of,your )

Here the word for marks the knowing of your way as the goal or purpose of the psalmist’s prayer for God’s blessing in the previous verse. Use a connector in your language that makes it clear that this is the purpose. Alternate translation: [so that people may know your way]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

דַּרְכֶּ֑⁠ךָ

(Some words not found in UHB: to=know on_the=earth way_of,your in=all nations salvation_of,your )

The psalmist is speaking of how God acts as if that were a way or path that God walks along. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [how you act]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / ellipsis

בְּ⁠כָל־גּ֝וֹיִ֗ם יְשׁוּעָתֶֽ⁠ךָ

(Some words not found in UHB: to=know on_the=earth way_of,your in=all nations salvation_of,your )

The psalmist is leaving out some of the words that in many languages a sentence would need in order to be complete. You can supply these words from the context if that would be clearer in your language. Alternate translation: [and for the knowing of your salvation among all of the nations]

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns

יְשׁוּעָתֶֽ⁠ךָ

salvation_of,your

If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea of salvation, you could express the same idea in another way. Alternate translation: [how you save people]

Note 5 topic: writing-pronouns

דַּרְכֶּ֑⁠ךָ בְּ⁠כָל־גּ֝וֹיִ֗ם יְשׁוּעָתֶֽ⁠ךָ

(Some words not found in UHB: to=know on_the=earth way_of,your in=all nations salvation_of,your )

The pronoun your refers to God in both instances. Alternate translation: [God’s way … God’s salvation among all the nations]
