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: 16 And_she_went and_she_sat to/for_her/it from_before at_a_distance like_the_shooters_of a_bow if/because she_said not let_me_look on_the_death_of the_boy and_she_sat from_before and_she_lifted_up DOM voice_of_her and_she_wept. (GEN 21:16)

OET-RV: 16 and she went and she went a short distance away (about as far as a bow can shoot an arrow) and sat down there, because she said, “I don’t want to watch my child die.” And as she sat at a distance, she sobbed loudly. (GEN 21:16)

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 various word forms of the root word (lemma) ‘Lemmas=‘וְ’, ‘בָּכָה’’ have 2 different glosses: ‘and,she_wept’, ‘and,you_wept’.
