UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / simile

τρίχας ὡς τρίχας γυναικῶν

hairs like /the/_hairs ˱of˲_women

In this culture women typically wore their hair long. So the point of this comparison is that the locusts had long hair. If it would be helpful in your language, you could make this point explicitly. Alternate translation: “hair that was long like the hair of women”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / ellipsis

οἱ ὀδόντες αὐτῶν ὡς λεόντων ἦσαν

the teeth ˱of˲_them like ˱of˲_lions were

John is leaving out some of the words that in many languages a sentence would need in order to be complete. You can supply these words from the context if that would be clearer in your language. Alternate translation: “their teeth were as the teeth of lions”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / simile

οἱ ὀδόντες αὐτῶν ὡς λεόντων ἦσαν

the teeth ˱of˲_them like ˱of˲_lions were

The point of this comparison is that the locusts had teeth that were sharp, large, and strong, like the teeth of lions. If it would be helpful in your language, you could make this point explicitly. Alternate translation: “their teeth were sharp, large, and strong like lions’ teeth”
