The Key Word — תִפְחָ֑ד, tif.Chadgenerated
The verb פָּחַד (pachad) means to fear or dread. It is used in contexts where one feels alarm or awe, especially in relation to God. The parsing indicates it is in the Qal stem, imperfect tense, second person masculine singular, suggesting an ongoing action or state.
This word conveys a sense of fear that can arise unexpectedly, such as from sudden danger. In this verse, it is contrasted with the assurance of safety when one lies down, indicating that those who trust in the Lord will not experience this fear.
How Translations Differ — measured against the Berean Standard Biblegenerated
The translations generally agree on the meaning of the verse.
Sentence Structuregenerated
The verse consists of two main clauses connected by 'when': the first clause introduces the act of lying down, and the second describes the result of that action. The structure emphasizes the conditional relationship between resting and the absence of fear.
The finite verbs are תִשְׁכַּ֥ב (you will lie down) and תִפְחָ֑ד (you will fear), indicating actions taken by the subject. The use of sequential verbs highlights the flow from lying down to the resulting state of peace.
Septuagint Backgroundgenerated
The Septuagint translates תִשְׁכַּ֥ב as κάθῃ (you lie down), showing a direct correspondence in meaning. This choice reflects a similar understanding of the act of resting.
The translation of תִפְחָ֑ד as ἔσῃ (you will be afraid) suggests a straightforward rendering that aligns with the Hebrew intent, maintaining the conditional relationship present in the original text.
