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: 16 And_ the _descendants _of Yōşēf _they _said not it _will _be _found to/for_us the _hill_country and_chariotry _of iron in_all the_Kənaˊₐnī[s] who_dwells in_land _of the _valley to_those_who in_house _of shəʼān and_her/its_daughters and_to_those_who are_in_the _valley _of Yizrəˊ^ʼēl/(Jezreel). (JOS 17:16)

OET-RV: 16 “The hill country certainly isn’t big enough for all of us,” they responded, “plus the Canaanites living in the Yezreel valley and in Beyt-Shan and the surrounding towns have iron chariots.” (JOS 17:16)

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 ‘לָנוּ’ (Morphology=R PoS=preposition
Morphology=Sp1cp PoS=pronominal_suffix Person=first Gender=common Number=plural) is always and only glossed as ‘to / for_us’.

The various word forms of the root word (lemma) ‘Lemmas=‘לְ’, ‘הוּא’’ have only one gloss: ‘to/for=us’.
