OET interlinear EZRA 6:11

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

וּ⁠מִנִּ⁠י֮ שִׂ֣ים טְעֵם֒ דִּ֣י

and,from,I issue decree that/who

If it would be helpful in your language, you could say this with an active form. Alternate translation: “and I am commanding that”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom

כָל־אֱנָ֗שׁ דִּ֤י יְהַשְׁנֵא֙ פִּתְגָמָ֣⁠א דְנָ֔ה

all man that/who violates edict,the this(ms)

The phrase any man who changes this edict could mean giving different instructions from what the king had commanded, but it could also mean doing something against what his edict commands. 6:12 suggests that changing the edict means destroying the temple rather than ensuring that it was rebuilt and maintained. Alternate translation: “if anyone disobeys this edict”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

יִתְנְסַ֥ח אָע֙ מִן־בַּיְתֵ֔⁠הּ וּ⁠זְקִ֖יף יִתְמְחֵ֣א עֲלֹ֑⁠הִי

pulled beam from/more_than house,his and,raised_up impaled on,it

This is an implicit reference to one form of capital punishment that the Persians used. Darius assumes that the officials know what he means. Anyone who violates his order is to be lifted up and impaled on a beam of wood from his own house. That is, one end of the beam is to be sharpened so that it will pass through the body of the offender, the other end is to be planted in the ground, and he is to be impaled on the beam. Alternate translation: “pull a beam out of his house, sharpen one end, and lift him up and impale him on it”

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

וּ⁠בַיְתֵ֛⁠הּ נְוָל֥וּ יִתְעֲבֵ֖ד עַל־דְּנָֽה

and,house,his pile_of_rubble made on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in this/about_this

The expression rubbish heap means that the house would be so thoroughly destroyed that it would look like a garbage dump. The former site of the house would not necessarily be used as an actual dump. Alternate translation: “and as a further punishment for violating my order, I command you to demolish his house”
