Open English Translation (OET)

Hebrew wordlink #133542

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: 8 And_he _stood and_he/it _called to the _battle _lines _of Yisrā^ʼēl/(Israel) and_he/it _said to/for_them to/for_what do _you(pl)_come _out to_deploy battle am_not am_I the_Philistine and_are_you(pl) servants of_Shāʼūl/(Saul) commission to/for_you(pl) a _man and_let _him _come _down to_me. (SA1 17:8)

OET-RV: 8 Goliat stood there and called out to the Israeli warriors, “Why have you all come out to line up for battle? Now, I’m down here as a Philistine, and all of you are Sha’ul’s slaves, so choose a man for yourselves and let him come down here to fight me. (SA1 17:8)

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 ‘אֵלָי’ (Morphology=R PoS=preposition
Morphology=Sp1cs PoS=pronominal_suffix Person=first Gender=common Number=singular) is always and only glossed as ‘to, me’.

The various word forms of the root word (lemma) ‘Lemmas=‘אֶל’, ‘הוּא’’ have 4 different glosses: ‘against,me’, ‘into,me’, ‘to,me’, ‘to,myself’.
