Open English Translation (OET)

Hebrew wordlink #100943

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: 6 If/because forty year[s] the _people _of Yisrā^ʼēl/(Israel) they _had _walked in_wilderness until all _of the_nation the _men _of (the)_war who_came_out from_Miʦrayim who not they _had _listened to_the _voice _of YHWH whom YHWH he _had _sworn to/for_them to_not to_let _them _to _see DOM the_earth/land which YHWH he _had _sworn to_fathers _of_their to_give to/for_us a _land flowing _of milk and_honey was _finished. (JOS 5:6)

OET-RV: 6 The Israelis had spent forty years moving around the wilderness until the last of those men who’d left Egypt but hadn’t listened to Yahweh had died. Yahweh had promised not to let them see the land that he’d promised to their ancestors to give them—a land flowing with milk and honey. (JOS 5:6)

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 ‘לָהֶם’ (Morphology=R PoS=preposition
Morphology=Sp3mp PoS=pronominal_suffix Person=third Gender=masculine Number=plural) is always and only glossed as ‘to / for_them’.

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