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 / distinguish

בֶּן־הַ⁠יְמִינִ֔י אֲשֶׁ֖ר מִ⁠בַּֽחוּרִ֑ים

(Some words not found in UHB: and,he_hurried Shimˊī son_of Gērāʼ son_of (the),jaminite which/who [was]_from,Bahurim and=he/it_descended with (a)_man Yehuda to,meet the=king Dāvid )

The author is not distinguishing this Benjaminite, Shimei, from another Benjaminite who was not from Bahurim. The detail is reminding readers about the identity of this character. Be sure that this is clear in your translation.

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / hendiadys

וַ⁠יְמַהֵ֗ר & וַ⁠יֵּ֨רֶד֙

and,he_hurried & (Some words not found in UHB: and,he_hurried Shimˊī son_of Gērāʼ son_of (the),jaminite which/who [was]_from,Bahurim and=he/it_descended with (a)_man Yehuda to,meet the=king Dāvid )

The phrase hurried and came down expresses a single idea. The word hurried tells in what way Shimei came down. If it would be more natural in your language, you could express this meaning in a different way. Alternate translation: [And … hurriedly came down]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / explicitinfo

וַ⁠יֵּ֨רֶד֙

(Some words not found in UHB: and,he_hurried Shimˊī son_of Gērāʼ son_of (the),jaminite which/who [was]_from,Bahurim and=he/it_descended with (a)_man Yehuda to,meet the=king Dāvid )

In keeping with what is usual for his language and culture, the author is marking travel for change in elevation. If this expression contains extra information that would not be natural to express in your language, you could shorten it. You can do the same for the similar instances in [verses 20](../19/20.md) and [24](../19/24.md). Alternate translation: [and came]

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / genericnoun

אִ֣ישׁ יְהוּדָ֔ה

(a)_man Yehuda

The author is not referring to a specific man of Judah. He means the Judean leaders in general. If it would be helpful to your readers, you could use an expression that would be more natural in your language. Alternate translation: [the men of Judah]
