Bible Note: Steve, you've asked interesting questions. I can see that I would enjoy spending quality time on this NASB discussion list. (I just discovered it today.) 1. To answer your questions, we do not translate from English. We only want to translate the meaning of the original Biblical languages to the tribal language. 2.In the native language, the word for "worship" is completely different from the word for "serve." 3. I don't understand your question. Could you ask it in some other ways and I'll try again. 4. ehaoena is their word meaning "he's worshipping". It's a verb, which makes sense since worship is an activity. ehotse'ohevomotahoho is their word meaning "he's working for him" which would be one of the most likely ways they would word the idea of serving someone.
