OET (OET-LV) (the)_copy_of the_writing was_to_be_given law in_all province and_province displayed to/from_all/each/any/every the_peoples to_be ready for_day (the)_this.

OET (OET-RV) The letter told the officials to display copies where everyone could see them—that way all the people in every single province would know that the king had commanded this, and they could get ready for when the day came.

SIL Open Translator’s Notes:

Section 3:7–15: Haman plotted to kill the Jews

Haman went to the king and told him that the Jews in the empire did not obey the laws of the land, and so they all should be killed. The king authorized him to write an order saying that the Jews should be killed. Haman caused the order to be sent out everywhere in the kingdom on the thirteenth day of the first month of the next year. The order told the public to be ready to attack the Jews on the thirteenth day of the twelfth month.

3:14a

A copy of the text of the edict was to be issued in every province and published to all the people,

edict: See note on 1:20a.

was to be issued: The edict was to be made public, so that everybody would know about it and know that it was a law that must be obeyed. Probably when the document arrived in each town, officials would go to different parts of the area and read it aloud. It is also possible (though less likely) that it was displayed in a public place for people to read.

3:14b

so that they would be ready on that day.

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

הַ⁠כְּתָ֗ב לְ⁠הִנָּ֤תֵֽן דָּת֙ בְּ⁠כָל־מְדִינָ֣ה וּ⁠מְדִינָ֔ה

(Some words not found in UHB: copy_of of,the_writing [was]_to,be_given law in=all province and,province proclamation to/from=all/each/any/every the,peoples to=be ready for,day (the),this )

You can say this with an active form. For example, you can say, “The officials in every province presented a copy of the letter as the law.”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom

בְּ⁠כָל־מְדִינָ֣ה וּ⁠מְדִינָ֔ה

(Some words not found in UHB: copy_of of,the_writing [was]_to,be_given law in=all province and,province proclamation to/from=all/each/any/every the,peoples to=be ready for,day (the),this )

This expression means each and every province. See how you translated the term “province” in [1:1](../01/01.md).

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

הַ⁠כְּתָ֗ב & גָּל֖וּי לְ⁠כָל־הָֽ⁠עַמִּ֑ים

(Some words not found in UHB: copy_of of,the_writing [was]_to,be_given law in=all province and,province proclamation to/from=all/each/any/every the,peoples to=be ready for,day (the),this )

You can say this with an active form, and you can say who did the action. Alternate translation: [the letter told the officials to post copies where everyone could see them] or [the king commanded the officials to display copies of these letters where all the people could see them]

לִ⁠הְי֥וֹת עֲתִדִ֖ים לַ⁠יּ֥וֹם הַ⁠זֶּֽה

to=be ready for,day (Some words not found in UHB: copy_of of,the_writing [was]_to,be_given law in=all province and,province proclamation to/from=all/each/any/every the,peoples to=be ready for,day (the),this )

Alternate translation: [so that people would be ready to do on that day what the king had written in the letter] or [so that they would get ready to do what the letter said to do when the day came]

OET (OET-RV) The letter told the officials to display copies where everyone could see them—that way all the people in every single province would know that the king had commanded this, and they could get ready for when the day came.

Note: The OET-RV is still only a first draft, and so far only a few words have been (mostly automatically) matched to the Hebrew or Greek words that they’re translated from.

Acknowledgements: The Hebrew text, lemmas, and morphology are all thanks to the OSHB and some of the glosses are from Macula Hebrew.OET logo mark
