OET (OET-LV) And_withheld DOM hand_of_my and_acted for_the_sake_of name_of_my to_not to_be_profaned in_eyes_of the_nations which I_brought_out DOM_them in_sight_of_their.
OET (OET-RV) But I didn’t proceed for the sake of my reputation, so it wouldn’t be mocked by the nations who saw me bring the Israelis out of Egypt.
Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / synecdoche
(Occurrence 0) I turned my hand away
(Some words not found in UHB: and,withheld DOM hand_of,my and,acted for_the_sake_of name_of,my to=not he/it_began in,eyes_of the=nations which/who brought_~_out DOM,them in,sight_of,their )
Here the word “hand” represents Yahweh and turning his hand away means that he does not do what he was going to do. Alternate translation: “But I did not do that” (See also: figs-idiom)
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy
(Occurrence 0) for my name’s sake
(Some words not found in UHB: and,withheld DOM hand_of,my and,acted for_the_sake_of name_of,my to=not he/it_began in,eyes_of the=nations which/who brought_~_out DOM,them in,sight_of,their )
Here the word “name” represents Yahweh’s reputation. Alternate translation: “for the sake of my reputation”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive
(Occurrence 0) so it would not be profaned in the eyes of the nations
(Some words not found in UHB: and,withheld DOM hand_of,my and,acted for_the_sake_of name_of,my to=not he/it_began in,eyes_of the=nations which/who brought_~_out DOM,them in,sight_of,their )
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. See how you translated this in [Ezekiel 20:9](../20/09.md). Alternate translation: “so that the people would not profane it in the eyes of the nations”
Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy
(Occurrence 0) in the eyes of the nations
(Some words not found in UHB: and,withheld DOM hand_of,my and,acted for_the_sake_of name_of,my to=not he/it_began in,eyes_of the=nations which/who brought_~_out DOM,them in,sight_of,their )
Here the “nations” refer to the people who live in those places. The eyes represent seeing, and seeing represents thoughts or judgment. Alternate translation: “in the thoughts of the people in other nations” (See also: figs-metaphor)
20:4-26 That the Lord would not answer their inquiry did not mean that he had nothing to say to them. Ezekiel would parade the detestable character of their ancestors before their eyes.
OET (OET-LV) And_withheld DOM hand_of_my and_acted for_the_sake_of name_of_my to_not to_be_profaned in_eyes_of the_nations which I_brought_out DOM_them in_sight_of_their.
OET (OET-RV) But I didn’t proceed for the sake of my reputation, so it wouldn’t be mocked by the nations who saw me bring the Israelis out of Egypt.
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.
