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 ‘תֹּאמֵרוּ’ (Morphology=Vqi2mp PoS=qal_verb Type=imperfect_(yiqtol) Person=second Gender=masculine Number=plural) in the Hebrew originals

The word form ‘תֹּאמֵרוּ’ (Morphology=Vqi2mp PoS=qal_verb Type=imperfect_(yiqtol) Person=second Gender=masculine Number=plural) is always and only glossed as ‘you(pl)_will_say’.

OET-LV: 38 And_if the _burden _of YHWH you(pl)_will _say for_so/thus/hence thus YHWH he _says because you_have _spoken DOM the_message the_this the _burden _of YHWH and_I _sent to_you(pl) to_say not you(pl)_must _say the _burden _of YHWH. (JER_23:38)

OET-RV: 38 However if you say, ‘Yahweh’s burden’, then this is what Yahweh says: Because you said those words, ‘Yahweh’s burden,’ after I sent you all a message saying, ‘Don’t say, “Yahweh’s burden,’ (JER 23:38)
