Open English Translation (OET)

Hebrew wordlink #125106

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: 7 And_this formerly_former _times was_in_Yisrā^ʼēl/(Israel) on the_redemption and_on the_exchanging to_confirm every _of matter anyone he _drew _off sandal _of_his and_he/it_gave to_neighbour _of_his and_this was_the_attestation in_Yisrā^ʼēl/(Israel). (RUT 4:7)

OET-RV: 7 (At that time in Yisrael, people had a different way of buying land or exchanging goods between them. In order to make these matters legally binding, one man would take off one of his sandals and give it to the other party. That was the way people in Yisrael confirmed what they had agreed to do.) (RUT 4:7)

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 ‘וְנָתַן’ (Morphology=C PoS=conjunction
Morphology=Vqq3ms PoS=qal_verb Type=sequential_perfect_(weqatal) Person=third Gender=masculine Number=singular) is always and only glossed as ‘and_he / it_gave’.

The various word forms of the root word (lemma) ‘Lemmas=‘וְ’, ‘נָתַן’’ have only one gloss: ‘and=he/it_gave’.
