Open English Translation (OET)

Hebrew wordlink #123706

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: 22 And_it _was if/because fathers _of_their or brothers_of_their they _will _come mmm to_us and_we _will _say to_them show_favour _for _us _to them if/because not we _took each _man his/its_wife/woman in_battle if/because not you(pl) you(pl)_gave_them to/for_them about_time you(pl)_will _be _guilty. (JDG 21:22)

OET-RV: 22 When their fathers or brothers complain to us, we’ll tell them, “Let them have them since we didn’t find you for them. And you all won’t be guilty of giving them to the Benyamites because they stole them. (JDG 21:22)

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 ‘אֲחֵיהֶם’ (Morphology=Ncmpc PoS=common_noun Gender=masculine Number=plural State=construct
