OET interlinear DEU 30:17

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

יִפְנֶ֥ה לְבָבְ⁠ךָ֖

turns_away heart_of,your

Moses uses the heart to represent where a person’s will and inner commitment exist. He is speaking of disobeying Yahweh as if one turns away from walking on a path that follows Yahweh. You may have comparable expressions in your language, or you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [you decide to disobey Yahweh]

and=not (Some words not found in UHB: and=if turns_away heart_of,your and=not listen and,you_will_be_drawn_aside and,you_will_bow_down to,gods other and,you,will_serve_them )

See how you translated “listen” in [verse 2](../30/02.md). Alternate translation: [and you do not listen and obey]

(Some words not found in UHB: and=if turns_away heart_of,your and=not listen and,you_will_be_drawn_aside and,you_will_bow_down to,gods other and,you,will_serve_them )

The expression are drawn away is a passive verbal form. If your language would not use that form, you could express the idea in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. Alternate translation: [but you turn away] or [but you go astray]
