1.2 KiB
Description
When the Unlocked Dynamic Bible provides a good alternate translation for the ULB, then usually there is not a Note for the ULB text. However, when the Note gives more than one suggested translation for a word or phrase, the Note may include text from the UDB as one of the suggested translations. In that case the text from the UDB will be followed by "(UDB)."
Translation Notes Examples
they implored him to stay with them. (John 4:40 ULB)
they urged him to stay a longer time with them. (John 4:40 UDB)
The Note for this verse says:
- implored him - "begged him" or "urged him" (UDB)
Here the suggested translation for the words 'implored him' is 'begged him.' The words, 'urged him' from the UDB have a similar meaning and are included as another suggestion.
When he saw Jesus, he fell on his face. (Luke 5:12 ULB)
When he saw Jesus, he bowed down to the ground. (Luke 5:12 UDB)
The Note for this verse says:
- he fell on his face - "he knelt and touched the ground with his face" or "he bowed down to the ground" (UDB)
Here the words from the UDB are provided as another translation suggestion.
