Key: C 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: 19 And_ god _he/it_said but Sārāh wife_of_your is_about_to_bear to/for_yourself(m) a_son and_you_will_call DOM his/its_name Yiʦḩāq/(Isaac) and_I_will_establish DOM covenant_of_my with_him/it to_a_covenant_of perpetuity for_offspring_of_his after_him. (GEN 17:19)

OET-RV: 19 “No,” God replied, “It’ll be your wife Sarah who gives you a son, and you’ll name him ‘Yitshak’ (‘Isaac’, meaning ‘one who laughs’). I’ll establish my agreement with him as a never-ending commitment to him and his descendants. (GEN 17:19)

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 ‘שְׁמוֹ’ (Morphology=Ncmsc PoS=common_noun Gender=masculine Number=singular State=construct
 Morphology=Sp3ms PoS=pronominal_suffix Person=third Gender=masculine Number=singular) is always and only glossed as ‘his / its_name’.

The various word forms of the root word (lemma) ‘Lemmas=‘שֵׁם’, ‘הוּא’’ have only one gloss: ‘his/its=name’.
