Hebrew wordlink #140254

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_ Shāʼūl _he _disguised _himself and_he _was _clothed garments other and_ he and_two _of men with_him/it _he/it _went and_they _came to the_woman night and_he/it _said divine please to_me by_necromancy and_bring _up to_me DOM the_one_whom I _will _say to_you. (SA1 28:8)

OET-RV: 8 So Sha’ul put on different clothes to disguise himself, and went off in the night with two of his men. They went to the woman and he asked, “Please divine for me with a spirit of the dead and bring up the person that I tell you.” (SA1 28:8)

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 ‘לִי’ (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=‘לְ’, ‘הוּא’’ have only one gloss: ‘to=me’.
