OET interlinear DEU 28:49

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

יִשָּׂ֣א יְהוָה֩ עָלֶ֨י⁠ךָ גּ֤וֹי

(Some words not found in UHB: bring YHWH on,you nation from,a_distance from,the_end_of the=earth/land just=as swoop_down (the),eagle nation which/who not understand language_of,its )

Here Moses is using speaking as if Yahweh were going to lift up a nation physically into a higher place than Israel. He means that Yahweh will bring them to a position of power over Israel. Your language may have a comparable expression that you can use in your translation, or you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [Yahweh will bring a nation against you] or [Yahweh will raise up a nation against you]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / hyperbole

מֵ⁠רָחוֹק֙ מִ⁠קְצֵ֣ה הָ⁠אָ֔רֶץ

from,a_distance from,the_end_of the=earth/land

Moses says from the ends of the earth as an extreme statement for emphasis. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a different way to express the emphasis. Alternate translation: [from a very distant land]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / simile

כַּ⁠אֲשֶׁ֥ר יִדְאֶ֖ה הַ⁠נָּ֑שֶׁר

(Some words not found in UHB: bring YHWH on,you nation from,a_distance from,the_end_of the=earth/land just=as swoop_down (the),eagle nation which/who not understand language_of,its )

The point of this comparison is that just as an eagle flies swiftly and attacks suddenly, so this nation will attack swiftly and suddenly. If it would be helpful in your language, you could make this point explicitly. Alternate translation: [attacking swiftly like an eagle swooping down on its prey]
