Appears to me that you refer to an English paraphrasing of the HB.

Dear Isaac,

This is not a translation, but your words has some similarity with an interlinear text. "The Theory and Practice of Translation," E. A. Nida and C. R. Taber, 1974, p. 12 gives the following definition: Translating consists in reproducing in the receptor language the closest natural equivalent of the source language message, first in terms of meaning and secondly in terms of style." A translation from Hebrew into English requires that English tenses are chosen and that the clauses are expressed in a language that the target group will understand.


Best regards,
