if not if (Some words not found in UHB: if not caught the,thief and,he_will_be_brought_near owner_of of,the_house to/towards the=ʼElohīm if not Shalah his/its=hand on,the_property_of his/its=neighbour )
You may need to translate these in an active voice if your language does not use passive in this way. Alternate translation: [If no one finds the thief, bring the owner of the house to God]
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy
הָֽאֱלֹהִ֑ים
the=ʼElohīm
The word for God at its most literal means “great ones.” Here and in the [next verse](../22/09.md) it may have this basic meaning and refer to human judges or other leaders in Israel. It may also be a metonym and refer to the judges because they represent God to the people and have his authority. See [Exodus 21:6](../21/06.md) for another example of this. Alternate translation: [the judges]
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom

(Some words not found in UHB: if not caught the,thief and,he_will_be_brought_near owner_of of,the_house to/towards the=ʼElohīm if not Shalah his/its=hand on,the_property_of his/its=neighbour )
This is an idiom for stealing. If you have a way of saying this in your language, you can use it here. Alternate translation: [he has stolen his neighbor’s property]

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.
