Overview
A Translation for Translators is a special translation of the Bible designed to help translators to know implicit information in the original languages that is often required of translating the Holy Bible to other languages. It presents alternate ways of translating that may be necessary in various languages. It also gives additional insight to people who are just interested in reading and studying the Bible in English. A Translator's Translation is a version of the same text, edited to be more smoothly readable for the latter group.

I found the meaning of the markings (abbreviations) on another site! Here they are: [APO] = apostrophe [CHI] = chiasmus [DOU] = doublet [EUP] = euphemism [HEN] = hendiadys [HYP] = hyperbole [IDM] = idiom [IRO] = irony [LIT] = litotes [MET] = metaphor [MTY] = metonymy [PRS] = personification [RHQ] = rhetorical question [SIM] = simile [SYM] = symbol [SAR] = sarcasm [SYN] = synecdoche [TRI] = tripleCindy

I was also going to ask what the various markings in most verses mean. For example, this verse: “You saved/restored me when I was dying [MTY]. I was nearly dead, but you caused me to get well again.” (Psalm 30:3) What does MTY mean? There are a great number of different ones like that which mean nothing to us, but cause us to want to at least know what the letters stand for. Are they for a translators name, or for a specific way it's translated, or something else all together?

Faithlife Would it be possible to add the introductory material to these bibles? They explain the translation philosophy and more importantly explain what the features are. The version for translators has marking and other items all over it but I have no idea what they mean. Thank you

Interesting translation work! I wonder what the different abbreviations mean in the text. Is there a paper that explains them? Thankyou!
