Hebrew wordlink #367071

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: 17 Between the_porch and_the_altar the_priests who_serve _of (of)_YHWH let _them _weep and_let _them _say have_compassion Oh_YHWH on people _of_your and_do_not make inheritance _of_your into_a _reproach to_mock on_them nations to/for_what will _people _say among_peoples where god _of_is_their. (JOL 2:17)

OET-RV: 17 Let Yahweh’s servants the priests weep between the porch and the altar.
⇔ And let them say, “Have pity on your people, Yahweh,
⇔ and don’t allow others to mock the people that you inherited,
⇔ and then other nations to rule over them.
⇔ Why should the other nations ask, ‘Where is their god?’ ” (JOL 2:17)

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 ‘וְאַל’ (Morphology=C PoS=conjunction
Morphology=Tn PoS=negative_particle) is always and only glossed as ‘and, do_not’.

The various word forms of the root word (lemma) ‘Lemmas=‘וְ’, ‘אַל’’ have 2 different glosses: ‘and,do_not’, ‘and,not’.
