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: 12 And_they_lifted_up DOM eyes_of_their from_a_distance and_not they_recognized_him and_they_lifted_up voice_of_their and_they_wept and_they_tore each_one robe_of_his and_they_sprinkled dust on heads_of_their towards_the_heavens. (JOB 2:12)

OET-RV: 12 but when they saw him from a distance, they barely recognised him. They wailed loudly, and they ripped their own clothes, and they threw dust into the air so that it would fall on their heads. (All three of those were traditional signs of mourning.) (JOB 2:12)

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 ‘מֵרָחוֹק’ (Morphology=R PoS=preposition
 Morphology=Aamsa PoS=adjective Gender=masculine Number=singular State=absolute) is always and only glossed as ‘from, a_distance’.

The various word forms of the root word (lemma) ‘Lemmas=‘מִן’, ‘רָחֹוק’’ have 3 different glosses: ‘from,a_distance’, ‘from,a_distant_[land]’, ‘from,distant_[time]’.
