OET interlinear DEU 9:9

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / possession

לוּחֹ֣ת הַ⁠בְּרִ֔ית

tablets_of the,covenant

Here, Moses is using the possessive form to describe the tablets on which Yahweh wrote the covenant, specifically, the words of the Ten Commandments. If your language would not use the possessive form for this, you could use an equivalent expression to describe a tablet with writing on it. Alternate translation: [the tablets that had the words of the covenant on them]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom

הַ⁠בְּרִ֔ית אֲשֶׁר־כָּרַ֥ת יְהוָ֖ה

the,covenant which/who made YHWH

To cut a covenant means to make a covenant. See how you translated this in [4:23](../04/23.md). Alternate translation: [the covenant that Yahweh made]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

לֶ֚חֶם לֹ֣א אָכַ֔לְתִּי וּ⁠מַ֖יִם לֹ֥א שָׁתִֽיתִי

food/grain/bread not ate and=water not drank

The implication is that Moses chose to go without food or water while he was on the mountain. Be sure that this distinction is clear in your translation. Alternate translation: [bread I chose not to eat and water I chose not to drink]

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / synecdoche

לֶ֚חֶם

food/grain/bread

Here, bread represents all food. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use an equivalent expression from your language or state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [food]
