OET interlinear GEN 14:24

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: grammar-connect-exceptions

בִּלְעָדַ֗⁠י רַ֚ק

(Some words not found in UHB: apart,from_me only which/who eaten the_young,men and,the_share_of of,the_men which/who went with,me ˊĀnēr ʼEshkol and,Mamre they take share_of,their )

If, in your language, it would appear that Abram was making a statement here and then contradicting it, you could reword this to avoid using an exception clause. Consider what is the best way in your language to translate this exception sentence. Alternate translation: [So I will keep nothing more than] or [So I will only accept]

אֲשֶׁ֣ר אָֽכְל֣וּ הַ⁠נְּעָרִ֔ים

(Some words not found in UHB: apart,from_me only which/who eaten the_young,men and,the_share_of of,the_men which/who went with,me ˊĀnēr ʼEshkol and,Mamre they take share_of,their )

These young men were Abram’s trained servants or warriors who are mentioned in verses 14–15. Alternate translation: [what my servants who fought with me have eaten] or [what my men ate]

וְ⁠חֵ֨לֶק֙ הָֽ⁠אֲנָשִׁ֔ים אֲשֶׁ֥ר הָלְכ֖וּ אִתִּ֑⁠י עָנֵר֙ אֶשְׁכֹּ֣ל וּ⁠מַמְרֵ֔א

and,the_share_of (Some words not found in UHB: apart,from_me only which/who eaten the_young,men and,the_share_of of,the_men which/who went with,me ˊĀnēr ʼEshkol and,Mamre they take share_of,their )

Alternate translation: [and the share of the plunder that Aner, Eshcol, and Mamre deserve for being my allies] or [and what Aner, Eshcol, and Mamre deserve for helping me in the battle]

Note 2 topic: writing-politeness

הֵ֖ם יִקְח֥וּ

they take

Abram is being polite, but make sure in your translation that he does not sound like he is begging, especially since he is a mighty warrior. Alternate translation: [Please let them take] or [Please give them]

חֶלְקָֽ⁠ם

share_of,their

Alternate translation: [their share of the plunder] or [their part of what we recovered]
