PSA 77:2 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.

UTN uW Translation Notes:

I stretched my hands out

(Some words not found in UHB: my=sound/voice to/towards ʼElohīm and,cry_aloud my=sound/voice to/towards ʼElohīm and,hear to,me )

Alternate translation: “I prayed with my arms extended”

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / synecdoche

My soul refused to be comforted

(Some words not found in UHB: my=sound/voice to/towards ʼElohīm and,cry_aloud my=sound/voice to/towards ʼElohīm and,hear to,me )

The “soul” represents the person. If your language does not use the passive form in this way, you can state this in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. Alternate translation: “I would not allow anyone to try to comfort me” (See also: figs-activepassive)
