PSA 75:2 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: writing-quotations

כִּ֭י אֶקַּ֣ח מוֹעֵ֑ד אֲ֝נִ֗י מֵישָׁרִ֥ים אֶשְׁפֹּֽט

(Some words not found in UHB: that/for/because/then/when choose appointed_time I equity judge )

This is the beginning of what God said. If it would be helpful to your readers, you could mark that this is a direct quote of God. Alternate translation: [God said, “When I take the appointed time, I will judge with equity]

Note 2 topic: writing-pronouns

אֲ֝נִ֗י & אֶשְׁפֹּֽט

I & (Some words not found in UHB: that/for/because/then/when choose appointed_time I equity judge )

God is stating the pronoun I twice, even though the verb already includes this meaning. He is doing that to emphasize that he himself is the one speaking and acting. If a speaker of your language would use an explicit pronoun for the same purpose, you may want to use that construction in your translation. If not, your language may have other ways of showing the emphasis here. Alternate translation: [I myself will judge]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns

מֵישָׁרִ֥ים

(Some words not found in UHB: that/for/because/then/when choose appointed_time I equity judge )

If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea of equity, you could express the same idea in another way. Alternate translation: [what is right] or [uprightly]
