Open English Translation (OET)

Hebrew wordlink #18843

צָדְקָהGen 38

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.

Only use of identical word form ‘צָדְקָה’ (Morphology=Vqp3fs PoS=qal_verb Type=perfect_(qatal) Person=third Gender=feminine Number=singular) in the Hebrew originals

The word form ‘צָדְקָה’ (Morphology=Vqp3fs PoS=qal_verb Type=perfect_(qatal) Person=third Gender=feminine Number=singular) is always and only glossed as ‘she_is_righteous’.

OET-LV: 26And_ Yəhūdāh/(Judah) _he_recognized_them and_he/it_said she_is_righteous more_than_me if/because therefore yes/correct/thus/so not I_gave_her to_Shēlāh son_of_my and_not he_repeated again to_know_her.   (GEN_38:26)

OET-RV: 26When Yehudah recognised the items, he admitted, “She’s more in the right than I am, because I didn’t give my son Shelah to her.” But he didn’t lie with her again. (GEN 38:26)
