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.

and,encouraged DOM his/its=hand
The author says that Jonathan strengthened David’s hand to mean that he encouraged him, by association with the way that people have less strengthen in their hands weaken when they are discouraged and afraid and more strength when they are encouraged and brave. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use an equivalent expression or plain language. Alternate translation: [And he encouraged him]
