Saying {pem chu'} doesn't mean the same to me as {pem Qup}.
'New' describes the condition of the day (one that only recently came into
existence. 'Young' describes a temporal position near the beginning of the day.
Of course, it's not completely uncontroversial that a day can be young, even
metaphorically.
