PSA 9:15 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.

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

טָבְע֣וּ ג֭וֹיִם בְּ⁠שַׁ֣חַת עָשׂ֑וּ בְּ⁠רֶֽשֶׁת־ז֥וּ טָ֝מָ֗נוּ נִלְכְּדָ֥ה רַגְלָֽ⁠ם

fallen nations (Some words not found in UHB: fallen nations in_[the],pit they_had_acquired in_[the],net that hid caught foot_of,their )

People dig pits so they can catch animals that fall into them. They also hide nets to catch animals. Here digging a pit or hiding a net represents making plans to destroy people. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a comparable expression or state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [The nations are like people who dig a pit for others and then fall into it; like people who hide a net to catch people and then get caught in it] or [The nations get caught in their own traps.]
