PSA 89:19 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.

Ethan is using the word translated as Then to introduce a new event in the story. Use a word, phrase, or other method in your language that is natural for introducing a new event.

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / quotations

וַ⁠תֹּ֗אמֶר שִׁוִּ֣יתִי עֵ֭זֶר עַל־גִּבּ֑וֹר הֲרִימ֖וֹתִי בָח֣וּר מֵ⁠עָֽם

(Some words not found in UHB: then spoke in,a_vision to,your_faithful_of,[people] and=she/it_said bestowed helper on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in mighty exalted chosen from_[the],people )

If it would be more natural in your language, you could express this as an indirect quotation. Alternate translation: [telling them that you have placed help on a warrior; you have raised up a chosen one from the people]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns

עֵ֭זֶר

helper

If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea of help, you could express the same idea in another way. Alternate translation: [my helping hand]
