1 Kings 11:39

Hebrew
וַֽאעַנֶּ֛ה אֶתplugin-autotooltip__default plugin-autotooltip_bigאֵת

hebrew

The Hebrew אֵת word does not have a corresponding word in English. In Hebrew, it is a marker of the accusative, i.e. the word following it is the object of the sentence.

For example, in Genesis 1:1 the word is preceded by בָּרָ֣א אֱלֹהִ֑ים (
זֶ֥רַע דָּוִ֖ד לְמַ֣עַן זֹ֑את אַ֖ךְ לֹ֥א כָל הַיָּמִֽים
ESV
And I will afflict the offspring of David because of this, but not forever.'“
NIV
I will humble David's descendants because of this, but not forever.'“
NLT
Because of Solomon's sin I will punish the descendants of David– though not forever.'“
LXX
KJV
And I will for this afflict the seed of David, but not for ever.
