PSA 76:4 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.

נָ֭אוֹר & אַדִּ֗יר

resplendent & (Some words not found in UHB: resplendent you(ms) majestic more,than_mountains_of prey )

The terms shining and majestic mean similar things. The psalmist is using the two terms together for emphasis. If it would be clearer for your readers, you could express the emphasis with a single phrase. Alternate translation: [are brilliantly glorious] or [are radiant with glory]

נָ֭אוֹר

resplendent

The psalmist is speaking of God as if he were shining with radiant light. If it would be helpful for your readers, you could use an equivalent expression from your language or state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [are glorious] or [are radiant]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

מֵֽ⁠הַרְרֵי־טָֽרֶף

more,than_mountains_of prey

If it would be helpful in your language, you could express this as a comparison or state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [from the mountains where you defeated your enemies] or [like the mountains of your victory]
