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: figures-of-speech / explicit

זָ֘כַ֤ר

remembered

By He remembers, the psalmist does not mean that God could forget something, since God cannot forget anything. He means that God consistently knows and acts according to his covenant loyalty and faithfulness. You could indicate this explicitly in your translation if that would be helpful to your readers. Alternate translation: [He bears in mind]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns

חַסְדּ֨⁠וֹ ׀ וֶֽ⁠אֱֽמוּנָת⁠וֹ֮

loyalty_of,his_covenant and,faithfulness_of,his

If your language does not use abstract nouns for the ideas of covenant loyalty and faithfulness, you could express the same ideas in other ways. Alternate translation: [that he has committed to love and to be faithful]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

לְ⁠בֵ֪ית יִשְׂרָ֫אֵ֥ל

to,the_house_of (Some words not found in UHB: remembered loyalty_of,his_covenant and,faithfulness_of,his to,the_house_of Yisrael seen all ends_of earth DOM salvation_of our_God_of,our )

Here, house means all the people descended from a particular person. It envisions them as if they were one household living together. So the house of Israel figuratively means all the people descended from the patriarch Jacob, who was also known as Israel. Alternate translation: [to the people of Israel]

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / merism

אַפְסֵי־אָ֑רֶץ

ends_of earth

The psalmist is referring to all of the earth by naming the extremes, the ends of the earth. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use an equivalent expression or plain language. Alternate translation: [people all over the earth]

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns

אֵ֝֗ת יְשׁוּעַ֥ת אֱלֹהֵֽי⁠נוּ

DOM salvation_of our_God_of,our

If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea of salvation, you could express the same idea in another way. Make sure that your translation communicates that Yahweh is the one who saves his people; he is not the one who is saved. Alternate translation: [how our God saves people]

Note 6 topic: figures-of-speech / possession

אֱלֹהֵֽי⁠נוּ

our_God_of,our

The psalmist is using this possessive form to mean the God whom the people worship. It may be helpful to clarify this for your readers. Alternate translation: [from the God whom we worship]
