Hebrew wordlink #153500

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: 4 And_they _said to_him/it the_Giⱱˊōnites there_is_not mmm silver and_gold with Shāʼūl and_with house _of_his and_there_is_not to/for_us a _man to_put _to _death in_Yisrā^ʼēl/(Israel) and_he/it_said what are_you(pl) saying I _will _do for_you(pl). (SA2 21:4)

OET-RV: 4 “We have no claim to gold or silver from Sha’ul or his household,” the Gibeonites replied, “And we don’t wish to have anyone in Yisrael put to death.”
¶ “Then what are you saying that I can do for you all?” he asked. (SA2 21:4)

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 ‘וַיֹּאמֶר’ (Morphology=C PoS=conjunction
Morphology=Vqw3ms PoS=qal_verb Type=sequential_imperfect_(wayyiqtol) Person=third Gender=masculine Number=singular) is always and only glossed as ‘and_he / it_said’.

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