cut_off nations in_ruins strongholds,their laid_waste streets,their
This is the beginning of a direct quotation from Yahweh that continues through verse 13. You may wish to indicate that in your translation by using a natural way of introducing direct quotations in your language. Alternate translation: “Yahweh has said, ‘I have cut off nations, their corners have been demolished; I have destroyed their streets’”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
הִכְרַ֣תִּי גוֹיִ֗ם נָשַׁ֨מּוּ֙ פִּנּוֹתָ֔ם הֶחֱרַ֥בְתִּי חֽוּצוֹתָ֖ם
cut_off nations in_ruins strongholds,their laid_waste streets,their
Yahweh is speaking as if he has done these things personally, but he means that the enemy army he has been describing throughout the book has done them. You could indicate that in your translation if it would be helpful to your readers. Alternate translation: “I have caused an enemy army to cut off nations, their corners have been demolished; that army has destroyed their streets”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom
הִכְרַ֣תִּי
cut_off
See how you translated the expression “cut off” in 1:3. Alternate translation: “I have destroyed” or “I have caused an enemy army to destroy”
Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive
נָשַׁ֨מּוּ֙ פִּנּוֹתָ֔ם
in_ruins strongholds,their
If your language does not use this passive form, you could express the idea in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. Alternate translation: “I have demolished their corners” or “it has demolished their corners”
Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
פִּנּוֹתָ֔ם
strongholds,their
See how you translated the word corners in 1:16. Alternate translation: “the high towers at the corners of their walls”
Note 6 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive
נִצְדּ֧וּ עָרֵיהֶ֛ם
destroyed cities,their
If your language does not use this passive form, you could express the idea in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. Alternate translation: “Their cities are in ruins”
Note 7 topic: figures-of-speech / doublet
מִבְּלִי־אִ֖ישׁ מֵאֵ֥ין יוֹשֵֽׁב
from,no (a)_man from,no-one inhabitant
These two phrases mean similar things. Yahweh is using them together for emphasis. If it would be clearer for your readers, you could express the emphasis with a single phrase. Alternate translation: “without a single person living there”
