Open English Translation (OET)

Hebrew wordlink #93811

Key: khaki:verbs.
Bold in each verse marks the word or words linked to that example’s source word, where an alignment is available.
Note: Automatic aligning of the OET-RV to the LV is done by some temporary software, hence the RV alignments are incomplete (and may occasionally be wrong). An unbolded RV line may have no alignment for this word. See the OET key for other text colours and marks.

OET-LV: 5 if/because brothers they _will _dwell together and_ one from_them _he _will _die and_a _son there_belongs_not to_him/it not the _wife _of the _dead_man she _will _belong to_the_outside to_a _man strange brother_of_her_husband’s he _will _go on/upon_it(f) and_he_will _take _her to_him/it to/for_(a)_woman and_he_will _act _as _a _husband’s _brother _for _her. (DEU 25:5)

OET-RV: 5 If some brothers live on the same property and one of them dies without leaving a son, then the widow mustn’t marry outside of the family. Her brother-in-law must take her as a wife for himself and perform the duty of a brother-in-law. (DEU 25:5)

Note: These word pages enable you to click through to the Open Scriptures Hebrew Bible (OSHB) that the Open English Translation Old Testament is translated from. The OSHB is based on the Westminster Leningrad Codex (WLC). (We are still searching for a digitized facsimile of the Leningradensis manuscript that we can easily link to. See this list and this archive for now.) This is all part of the commitment of the Open English Translation team to be transparent about all levels of the Bible translation process right back to the original manuscripts.

The word form ‘יְבָמָהּ’ (Morphology=Ncmsc PoS=common_noun Gender=masculine Number=singular State=construct
Morphology=Sp3fs PoS=pronominal_suffix Person=third Gender=feminine Number=singular) is always and only glossed as ‘brother_of, her_husband's’.

The various word forms of the root word (lemma) ‘Lemmas=‘יָבָם’, ‘הוּא’’ have only one gloss: ‘brother_of,her_husband's’.
