PSA 9:13 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: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns

חָֽנְנֵ֬⁠נִי & עָ֭נְיִ⁠י מִ⁠שֹּׂנְאָ֑⁠י

show,favor_to_me & affliction_of,my (Some words not found in UHB: show,favor_to_me YHWH see affliction_of,my from,[those_of,who]_hate_me O_of,[you_who]_raise_me from_[the],gates_of death )

If your language does not use abstract nouns for the ideas of mercy, affliction, and haters, you could express the same ideas in other ways. Alternate translation: [Be merciful to me … how I am afflicted by those who hate me]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

רְאֵ֣ה

see

The implication is that Yahweh will act, not just See. You could include this information if that would be helpful to your readers. Alternate translation: [Take action because of]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

מְ֝רוֹמְמִ֗⁠י מִ⁠שַּׁ֥עֲרֵי מָֽוֶת

O_of,[you_who]_raise_me (Some words not found in UHB: show,favor_to_me YHWH see affliction_of,my from,[those_of,who]_hate_me O_of,[you_who]_raise_me from_[the],gates_of death )

Here, death is spoken of as if it were a city that had gates through which people enter in. If someone is near the gates of death, it means that he will die soon. Keeping someone from dying is spoken of as lifting him away from the gates of death. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a comparable expression or state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [O you who can rescue me from death] or [O you who can keep me from dying]
