Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / parallelism
וַיָּבֹ֕אוּ כָּל־אִ֖ישׁ אֲשֶׁר־נְשָׂא֣וֹ לִבּ֑וֹ וְכֹ֡ל אֲשֶׁר֩ נָדְבָ֨ה רוּח֜וֹ אֹת֗וֹ הֵ֠בִיאוּ
and=they_came all/each/any/every (a)_man which/who stirred,him his/its=heart and=all/each/any/every which/who moved his/its=breath/wind/spirit DOM=him/it brought
These two phrases parallel each other and mean the same thing. It would be good to keep this poetic repetition in your translation unless it would be misunderstood. If repetition here would not highlight the joyful giving spirit of the Israelites in your language, you may need to combine the phrases. Alternate translation: “Everyone who was motivated, body and soul, came and gave”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / synecdoche
וַיָּבֹ֕אוּ כָּל־אִ֖ישׁ אֲשֶׁר־נְשָׂא֣וֹ לִבּ֑וֹ וְכֹ֡ל אֲשֶׁר֩ נָדְבָ֨ה רוּח֜וֹ אֹת֗וֹ הֵ֠בִיאוּ
and=they_came all/each/any/every (a)_man which/who stirred,him his/its=heart and=all/each/any/every which/who moved his/its=breath/wind/spirit DOM=him/it brought
Here, heart and spirit both refer to a person’s will, their desire to do something. Many languages will have similar expressions, perhaps using different body and spirit words or concepts which you can use. If your language would not express a person’s will in this way, you could translate the meaning. Alternate translation: “And every man whose will lifted him came, and all who felt impelled brought”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor
אֲשֶׁר־נְשָׂא֣וֹ לִבּ֑וֹ
which/who stirred,him his/its=heart
Here, heart lifted is a metaphor for being willing or excited. Many languages will have similar expressions, perhaps using a different body part or a different action. If your readers would not understand what this image means in this context, you could use an equivalent metaphor from your culture. Alternatively, you could express the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “who was excited”
Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / gendernotations
כָּל־אִ֖ישׁ אֲשֶׁר־נְשָׂא֣וֹ לִבּ֑וֹ וְכֹ֡ל אֲשֶׁר֩ נָדְבָ֨ה רוּח֜וֹ אֹת֗וֹ
all/each/any/every (a)_man which/who stirred,him his/its=heart and=all/each/any/every which/who moved his/its=breath/wind/spirit DOM=him/it
Here, man, whose, and him all refer to men and women in a general way. This is made explicit in the next verse. If it would be helpful in your language, you may use terms that include men and women.
Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns
וּלְבִגְדֵ֖י הַקֹּֽדֶשׁ
and,for,garments the,holy
If your language does not use an abstract noun for this idea, you can express the idea behind the abstract noun holiness in another way. See how you translated this in 28:2. Alternate translation: “and for the holy clothing”
OET (OET-LV) And_they_came every person whom stirred_him his/its_heart and_all/each/any/every [one]_whom it_impelled his/its_breath/wind/spirit DOM_him/it they_brought DOM the_contribution of_Yahweh for_work of_the_tent of_meeting and_to/for_all service_its and_for_garments the_holy.
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.
