This OET Readers’ Version was designed to be used with the Literal Version alongside, so you won’t get the best understanding from this single viewpoint. This is still an early look into the drafted text of the Open English Translation of the Bible. Please double-check the text in advance before using in public.
First collection
(Songs 1–41)
1 A person will reap the benefits
if they don’t take advice from wicked people,
and don’t stand around where sinners go,
and don’t sit and join all the scoffers.
2 Instead, they enjoy Yahweh’s instructions
and think about them day and night.
3 Those people are like trees that are planted by a stream[ref]
and which produce fruit in season.
and they prosper in everything they do.[ref]
4 But wicked people won’t prosper—
they’re like straw that gets blown away by the wind.
5 The wicked people won’t be able to stand when God judges them,
and sinners won’t be able to join in the assembly of all the godly people,
Jer 17:8:
8 That person will be like a tree planted by a stream[ref]
that sends its roots out to the water.
It has nothing to fear when the heat comes and its leaves stay green.
It has nothing to be afraid of in a drought year
and it won’t stop producing fruit.
Gen 29:2-3:
2 Close to his destination, he looked ahead, and wow, there was a well in the countryside, and what’s more, three flocks of sheep and goats were lying there near it, because the flocks were watered from that well but the stone over the mouth of the well was large and heavy. 3 Once all the flocks were gathered there, then they would roll the stone from over the mouth of the well and water the animals. Then they would return the stone to its place over the mouth of the well.
