Open English Translation (OET)

Hebrew wordlink #281904

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: 3 In _the_day when_ those _who_keep _of (of)_the_house _they _will _tremble and_ the _people _of (the)_strength _they _will _bend _themselves and_ the_female_grinders _they _will _cease if/because they _have _become _few and_ the_women_who_look in_windows _they_will_grow_dim. (ECC 12:3)

OET-RV: 3 That day when the guards of the house will get the trembles
⇔ and the strong men will be bent over,
⇔ and the women grinding grain will stop because there’s only a few of them left,
⇔ and the women looking out the windows will no longer see clearly. (ECC 12:3)

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 ‘וְחָשְׁכוּ’ (Morphology=C PoS=conjunction
Morphology=Vqq3cp PoS=qal_verb Type=sequential_perfect_(weqatal) Person=third Gender=common Number=plural) is always and only glossed as ‘and, they_will_grow_dim’.

The various word forms of the root word (lemma) ‘Lemmas=‘וְ’, ‘חָשַׁךְ’’ have only one gloss: ‘and,they_will_grow_dim’.
