OET (OET-RV) Anyone who touches the mountain mustn’t be touched by anyone else—they must be executed by throwing rocks at them or shooting them with a bow. No person or animal who touches the mountain can stay alive.’ Only after a long trumpet blast should they start to climb the mountain.”
Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy
לֹא־תִגַּ֨ע בּ֜וֹ יָ֗ד
not touch in/on/over=him/it hand
Here, hand is a metonym for any part of a person. Alternate translation: “No person shall touch that one”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive
סָק֤וֹל יִסָּקֵל֙ אוֹ־יָרֹ֣ה יִיָּרֶ֔ה
he_will_be_stoned he_will_be_stoned or to_be_shot he_will_be_shot
If your language does not use the passive form in this way, you can state this in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. Alternate translation: “you must certainly stone or shoot him”
יָרֹ֣ה יִיָּרֶ֔ה
to_be_shot he_will_be_shot
This refers to being killed by someone who shoots arrows from a bow.
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / go
יַעֲל֥וּ
go_up
If you translate this with come or go, consider which would be the correct perspective for your language and the text context. Yahweh is speaking, so “come up” is valid; however, the people will be the ones moving, so “go up” is valid as well.
19:10-15 In the second phase of preparation, the people received commands that would prepare them to receive God’s covenant. They were to wash their clothing (19:10, 14) because God is pure. They were to prepare a boundary all around the mountain (19:12-13) and be careful not to cross it because God is holy. They were to abstain from having sexual intercourse (19:15) because God is not a sexual being, and his blessings are not produced through sexual activity. Things that are natural and right under ordinary circumstances were to be set aside for the extraordinary purpose of concentrating on the Lord, the King who was about to appear before the people. Only their compliance with the second of these commands is specifically reported (19:23), but it is safe to assume that they obeyed the other two as well since no negative response from the Lord is recorded.
• Hebrews 12:18-22 contrasts this experience at Mount Sinai with the believer’s experience at Mount Zion, “the heavenly Jerusalem.”

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