Build Expanded Paraphrase

Click within the CBC to insert an expansion. A textbox will appear. Type in (or copy into) the textbox and push ESC to cancel or ENTER to save.

Alternatively, you may edit the CBC/insertions alternation directly at Data/26/expanded-paraphrase.json for a final draft. If you're viewing a paraphrase from the wiki, save it as a draft and then modify.

If there is an extra space between two parts...

, you'll need to modify the json file directly. For example, to enable plots: 

	{
		"verse": "1",
		"cbc": "plot",
		"Index": 6,
		"suppressFollowingSpace": true
	},
	{
		"verse": "1",
		"insertion": "s",
		"WordsBefore": 6,
		"Index": 7
	},

If a Google discourse sheet exists...

You may import the Expanded Paraphrase from the sheet by following these instructions.

Prepare the discourse sheet

  1. Open the Discourse Google sheet for this Psalm.
  2. Go to the tab named "Public-Text" (which is likely already made). If it doesn't exist, follow these instructions (you'll need it all by the end of this).

Prepare

To enable this, you must:

  1. Open the Discourse Google sheet for this Psalm.
  2. Add a new tab named "Public-Text" (the name isn't actually critical)
  3. Use as the formula in the top-left cell: ='Discourse Master Sheet'!A:A (or whatever the appropriate code is to select the first column of the master sheet).
  4. Drag the formula over to Column C and down as far as needed to get all the rows.
  5. File > Share > Publish to Web
  6. Instead of Entire Document, choose sheet Public-Text
  7. Instead of Web Page, choose Tab-separated values.
  8. Copy the link starting from after /d/e until before the &single, e.g. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/e/2PACX-1vTeE2dD9gc2v4rckm23VfBCDdpuLirI3DOxLQE10a2UHWl3puz8wPPCJ2wgBftP4VYqadCPb2pWOUwi/pub?gid=168152279&single=true&output=tsv
  9. Edit the base Psalm page, e.g. Psalm 19
  10. Add the DiscourseSheet property like this:
{{ResourceSite
|DiscourseSheet=2PACX-1vTeE2dD9gc2v4rckm23VfBCDdpuLirI3DOxLQE10a2UHWl3puz8wPPCJ2wgBftP4VYqadCPb2pWOUwi/pub?gid=168152279
|Banner Image=Psalm 19 banner image.jpg
  1. In D2, type "Expanded Paraphrase" as the new header. (This, like the one below, will be used by code to ensure this is what is intended.)
  2. In E2, type "Expanded Paraphrase as JSON" as the new header.

Get the spreadsheet ID

  1. Now you'll need to save the Google spreadsheet ID. This will be used to generate the JSON within the Google environment. (The Google sheet URL, which is likely already stored, will be used to extract the JSON into the Resource Site.)
  2. From the URL, copy the link starting from after /d until before the /edit?, e.g. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/26Ni8QMdjRtxVFj_eAcSD26kgnWmoNTLMZy0zvykIT8ku0/edit?gid=70226426086#gid=70226426086

Save the spreadsheet ID

(This step can be skipped if you'll only ever manuallly populate this; this goal permits us to bulk populate all discourse spreadsheets.)

  1. Edit the base Psalm page, e.g. Psalm 269
  2. Add the DiscourseSheetID property like this:
{{ResourceSite
|DiscourseSheetID=26Ni8QMdjRtxVFj_eAcSD26kgnWmoNTLMZy0zvykIT8ku0
|DiscourseSheet=2PACX-26vS309bCf4RkDjHEczGiDnZtOACqV94-DLwI_bYlzt5hugBM25ddPLVwaRETsZ9SyB46-7SpcGm3U8bX/pub?gid=70226426086
}}

Populate the Public-Text sheet

  1. Actually extract the bold & italics from the main sheet into the Public-Text sheet. This involves running an Apps Script. First open this: https://script.google.com/u/0/home/projects/267TAMP26KpcaMTXBf5qS0C-mflnt-26srgJTWns6bLRD_l6eNSj9zy4Bxzc/edit.
  2. Now add your discourse sheet id to the end of the list of spreadsheetIDs at the top, remembering to enclose it in double quotation marks and ensuring everything is comma-delimited.
  3. At the top of the page, ensure "extractBoldFromMultipleSpreadsheets" is in the menu bar.
  4. Click Run.
  5. If the Execution Log at the bottom of the page doesn't show "Execution started" and then "Execution completed" then ask Elizabeth for help...

Extract the Public-Text sheet to the Resource Site

Follow the above instructions and refresh the page. The Discourse Sheet properties have not yet been set.

Use the Save current draft button at the bottom of the page to save.

לְדָוִ֨ד שָׁפְטֵ֤נִי יְהוָ֗ה כִּֽי־אֲ֭נִי בְּתֻמִּ֣י הָלַ֑כְתִּי וּבַיהוָ֥ה בָּ֝טַ֗חְתִּי לֹ֣א אֶמְעָֽד׃ 1 By David God's chosen covenant king. Judge me, YHWH for you are the just judge who judges all humans and their behaviour, giving punishment for the wicked and favourable judgement for the righteous. Consider me righteous and grant me a favourable judgement, for though I am not flawless or sinless I have walked in my integrity which is what your covenant requires: to walk with you innocently and wholly, in all parts of life and I have trusted in YHWH YHWH! a God compassionate and gracious, slow to anger, and abounding in faithfulness and truth who is in covenant with me and my people. Because he is trustworthy, I am confident that I shall not waver as I continue to walk in the ways of his covenant.
בְּחָנֵ֣נִי יְהוָ֣ה | וְנַסֵּ֑נִי צָרְפָ֖ה כִלְיוֹתַ֣י וְלִבִּֽי׃ 2 Test me, YHWH, and try me for you take those in covenant with you and purify them; Refine my kidneys and my heart, as a smelting process separates the dross from the pure metal, so I long for internal refining, with all impurities removed, that I may stand before you not only in integrity but also in absolute holiness.
כִּֽי־חַ֭סְדְּךָ לְנֶ֣גֶד עֵינָ֑י 3 I trust that your refining will result in my internal purification, for your faithfulness, the faithfulness which you revealed as your character to Moses and our people, before renewing the covenant at Sinai and also to me as one of your people, and in the covenant you made with my house, is before my eyes, like a lens through which I view the world before me, and I walk in your truth.
לֹא־יָ֭שַׁבְתִּי עִם־מְתֵי־שָׁ֑וְא וְעִ֥ם נַ֝עֲלָמִ֗ים לֹ֣א אָבֽוֹא׃ 4 According to covenant obligation, I have not sat down with deceitful people, and with hypocrites I do not go. I do not trust those who deceive, and hide their characters, but I trust you who revealed yours as true.
שָׂ֭נֵאתִי קְהַ֣ל מְרֵעִ֑ים וְעִם־רְ֝שָׁעִ֗ים לֹ֣א אֵשֵֽׁב׃ 5 I have rejected the community of evildoers as ruler of your people, in covenant with you, I reject those who reject you, I do not sit down with wicked (people).
אֶרְחַ֣ץ בְּנִקָּי֣וֹן כַּפָּ֑י וַאֲסֹבְבָ֖ה אֶת־מִזְבַּחֲךָ֣ יְהוָֽה׃ 6 According to covenant obligation and blessing, because of your favourable judgement, I wash my hands in innocence, so that I can go around your altar, YHWH, refined and purified to worship where your presence dwells, your name is remembered and you bless your people, showing your mercy and dispensing justice through your representatives,
לַ֭שְׁמִעַ בְּק֣וֹל תּוֹדָ֑ה וּ֝לְסַפֵּ֗ר כָּל־נִפְלְאוֹתֶֽיךָ׃ 7 to make thanksgiving heard with a voice, as when the the Ark came to Jerusalem, and to tell of all your wonders your great acts of creation and salvation.
יְֽהוָ֗ה אָ֭הַבְתִּי מְע֣וֹן בֵּיתֶ֑ךָ 8 YHWH, I love the dwelling place of your house, which is your dwelling, though like the vast heavens, it cannot contain you, and the place where your presence dwells, your glorious manifest presence, where no deceit or wickedness has any place.
אַל־תֶּאֱסֹ֣ף עִם־חַטָּאִ֣ים נַפְשִׁ֑י וְעִם־אַנְשֵׁ֖י דָמִ֣ים חַיָּֽי׃ 9 Expecting the just judgement of deceitful and wicked people, I ask you, Do not take away my soul with these sinful (people) for you have control over the outcome of human souls, including a king's; and (do not take away) my life with bloodthirsty people when you judge their deeds,
אֲשֶׁר־בִּידֵיהֶ֥ם זִמָּ֑ה וִֽ֝ימִינָ֗ם מָ֣לְאָה שֹּֽׁחַד׃ 10 in whose hands is wickedness; for my hands are washed in innocence and their right hand(s) are full of of bribe(s), whereas I have been tested and purified.
וַ֭אֲנִי בְּתֻמִּ֥י אֵלֵ֗ךְ פְּדֵ֣נִי | וְחָנֵּֽנִי׃ 11 But I will walk in my integrity, judged favourably, not condemned. Redeem me, for I belong to you, and be gracious to me, so that by your graciousness and faithful commitment to me I will continue to walk in covenant relationship with you!
רַ֭גְלִי עָֽמְדָ֣ה בְמִישׁ֑וֹר 12 Because you are gracious and faithful, I trust that not only will I not waver, but My foot is standing on a plain, where I am safe, secure, and at rest. In assemblies, in the presence of your people I shall bless YHWH, they shall witness my blessing and we shall exalt his name together.
