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 ( הַשּׁ֨וֹק וְהֶעָלֶ֜יהָ וַיָּ֣שֶׂם לִפְנֵ֣י שָׁא֗וּל וַיֹּ֨אמֶר֙ הִנֵּ֤ה הַנִּשְׁאָר֙ שִׂים לְפָנֶ֣יךָ אֱכֹ֔ל כִּ֧י לַמּוֹעֵ֛ד שָֽׁמוּרplugin-autotooltip__default plugin-autotooltip_bigExamples
שָׁמַר
Meaning:
* To guard * To protect * To keep * To observe * To attend
The verb שמר occurs about 470 times in the Old Testament.
Central in covenant language. God “keeps” His covenant promises, and His people are called to Deuteronomy 7:9Psalm 121:7Deuteronomy 7:11Psalm 127:1Luke 2:19 לְךָ֥ לֵאמֹ֖ר הָעָ֣ם קָרָ֑אתִי וַיֹּ֧אכַל שָׁא֛וּל עִם שְׁמוּאֵ֖ל בַּיּ֥וֹם הַהֽוּא
