OET (OET-LV)And_I_proclaimed there a_fast at the_river ʼAhₐvāʼ to_humble_ourselves to_(the)_face_of/in_front_of/before god_of_our to_seek from_him/it a_journey straight to/for_us and_for_our_little_of_one[s] and_to/for_all property_of_our.

OET (OET-RV)Then right there by the river Ahava, I proclaimed a fast to humble ourselves in front of our god to request that he’d smooth the way ahead for us, and for our children, and for all our property,

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: grammar-connect-time-sequential

וָ⁠אֶקְרָ֨א

and,I_proclaimed

The word then indicates that the event the story will now relate came after the event it has just described. In your translation, you can use the expression in your language that would best indicate this relationship.

Note 2 topic: translate-symaction

צוֹם֙ & לְ⁠הִתְעַנּ֖וֹת

fast & to,humble_ourselves

The travelers would be afflicting themselves, that is, making themselves suffer, by denying themselves food. This was a gesture of humility and an expression that seeking God’s help was more important to them even than eating. Alternate translation: [a time of going without eating … to humble ourselves]

Note 3 topic: translate-names

הַ⁠נָּהָ֣ר אַהֲוָ֔א

the=river ʼAhₐvāʼ

See how you translated this name in [8:15](../08/15.md). Alternate translation: [the Ahava River]

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / exclusive

לְ⁠הִתְעַנּ֖וֹת

to,humble_ourselves

Here Ezra is using ourselves in the exclusive sense, that is, it excludes the reader.

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy

לִ⁠פְנֵ֣י אֱלֹהֵ֑י⁠נוּ

to=(the)_face_of/in_front_of/before God_of,our

Here, face represents the presence of a person. Alternate translation: [in the presence of our God]

Note 6 topic: figures-of-speech / exclusive

אֱלֹהֵ֑י⁠נוּ

God_of,our

In this case, Ezra is using our in the inclusive sense, that is, it includes the reader, since he is reporting his trip to fellow believers in God. Alternate translation: [The God to whom we all belong]

Note 7 topic: figures-of-speech / exclusive

לָ֥⁠נוּ וּ⁠לְ⁠טַפֵּ֖⁠נוּ וּ⁠לְ⁠כָל־רְכוּשֵֽׁ⁠נוּ

to/for=us and,for,our_little_of,one[s] and=to/for=all property_of,our

As Ezra tells his story, he uses us and our in the exclusive sense, that is, it excludes the reader.

Note 8 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

לְ⁠בַקֵּ֤שׁ מִמֶּ֨⁠נּוּ֙ דֶּ֣רֶךְ יְשָׁרָ֔ה לָ֥⁠נוּ וּ⁠לְ⁠טַפֵּ֖⁠נוּ וּ⁠לְ⁠כָל־רְכוּשֵֽׁ⁠נוּ

to,seek from=him/it road/way_of safe to/for=us and,for,our_little_of,one[s] and=to/for=all property_of,our

The word seek represents asking God to do something for them. A straight way represents safety during travel. Alternate translation: [and to ask God to protect us while we traveled and also protect our children and all of our belongings]

TSN Tyndale Study Notes:

8:21 fast and humble ourselves: Ezra recognized the need to look to God for the protection, safety, and health of 5,000 people going 800 miles on foot. Robbers might be hiding in the hills, there was danger in crossing rivers, and people could get sick.
