Open English Translation (OET)

Hebrew wordlink #149436

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: 14 And_ Dāvid _he/it _said to/from_all/each/any/every servants _of_his who with_him/it in_Yərūshālam/(Jerusalem) arise and_let _us _flee if/because not it _will _belong to/for_ourselves an _escape from_face/in _front _of ʼAⱱīshālōm hurry to_go lest he _should _hurry and_he_will _overtake _us and_he _will _thrust on_us DOM (the)_calamity and_he _will _strike _down the_city to_the_mouth_of the_sword. (SA2 15:14)

OET-RV: 14 So David told his servants, “Pack up quickly and let’s get out of here, or else we won’t be able to escape from Abshalom. Be fast in case he’s heading here soon and overtakes us. That would be a massacre and the whole city would die from their swords.” (SA2 15:14)

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 ‘לְפִי’ (Morphology=R PoS=preposition
