In rare cases, you will see in the Unlocked Dynamic Bible (UDB) that two or more verse numbers are combined, such as 17-18. This is called a verse bridge. This means that the information in the verses was rearranged so that the story or message could be more easily understood.
><sup>29</sup>These were the clans of the Horites: Lotan, Shobal, Zibeon, and Anah, <sup>30</sup>Dishon, Ezer, Dishan. These were clans of the Horites, according to their clan lists in the land of Seir. (Genesis 36:29-30 ULB)
><sup>29-30</sup>The people groups who were descendants of Hor lived in Seir land. The names of the people groups are Lotan, Shobal, Zibeon, Anah, Dishon, Ezer, and Dishan. (Genesis 36:29-30 UDB)
In the ULB text, verses 29 and 30 are separate, and the information about the people living in Seir is at the end of verse 30. In the UDB text, the verses are joined, and the information about them living in Seir is at the beginning. For many languages, this is a more logical order of information.
### Examples from the Bible
Sometimes the ULB has separate verses while the UDB has a verse bridge. In the example below the information was rearranged in the UDB so that the information about Yahweh blessing the land appears first.
><sup>4</sup>However, there should be no poor among you (for Yahweh will surely bless you in the land that he gives you as an inheritance to possess), <sup>5</sup>if only you diligently listen to the voice of Yahweh your God, to keep all these commandments that I am commanding you today. (Deuteronomy 15:4-5 ULB)
><sup>4-5</sup>Yahweh our God will bless you in the land that he is giving to you. If you obey Yahweh our God and obey all the commandments that I am giving to you today, there will not be any poor people among you. (Deuteronomy 15:4-5 UDB)
In the example below, the information was rearranged in the UDB so that it shows the order in which the events happened.
In Genesis 47:1-2, the author tells about how Joseph introduced his brothers to Pharaoh before telling that Joseph took his brother to Pharaoh.
><sup>1</sup>Then Joseph went in and told Pharaoh, "My father and my brothers, their flocks, their herds, and all that they own, have arrived from the land of Canaan. See, they are in the land of Goshen."
><sup>2</sup>He took five of his brothers and introduced them to Pharaoh. (Genesis 47:1-2 ULB)
In the UDB the information is rearranged to show the order in which the events happened.
><sup>1-2</sup>Joseph chose five of his brothers to go with him to talk to the king. He introduced them to the king, and then he said, "My father and my brothers have come from Canaan land. They have brought all their sheep, goats, cattle, and everything else that they own, and they are living now in region of Goshen." (Genesis 47:1-2 UDB)
In Genesis 36:29-30, the author tells about the clans of the Horites being in the land of Seir after he lists the clans.
><sup>29</sup>These were the clans of the Horites: Lotan, Shobal, Zibeon, and Anah, <sup>30</sup>Dishon, Ezer, Dishan. These were clans of the Horites, according to their clan lists in the land of Seir. (Genesis 36:29-30 ULB)
In the UDB, the the information about the Horites living in Seir is given first and is followed by the list of Horite clans. For many languages, this is a more logical order of information.
><sup>29-30</sup>The people groups who were descendants of Hor lived in Seir land. The names of the people groups are Lotan, Shobal, Zibeon, Anah, Dishon, Ezer, and Dishan. (Genesis 36:29-30 UDB)
### Translation Strategy
Order the information in a way that will be clear to your readers.
