uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: writing-quotations

וַ⁠יֹּ֕אמֶר

(Some words not found in UHB: and=he/it_said see/lo/see! I_heard that/for/because/then/when there_is grain in,Egypt go_down to,(to) and,buy_grain to/for=us from=there so,that_we_may_live and=not die )

For some languages it is more natural to omit the quote margin here, because the same person (Jacob) is still talking to the same people (his sons). Alternate translation: [Then he added]

הִנֵּ֣ה

(Some words not found in UHB: and=he/it_said see/lo/see! I_heard that/for/because/then/when there_is grain in,Egypt go_down to,(to) and,buy_grain to/for=us from=there so,that_we_may_live and=not die )

Alternate translation: [Look]

שָׁמַ֔עְתִּי

(Some words not found in UHB: and=he/it_said see/lo/see! I_heard that/for/because/then/when there_is grain in,Egypt go_down to,(to) and,buy_grain to/for=us from=there so,that_we_may_live and=not die )

Alternate translation: [I learned] or [Someone told me]

כִּ֥י יֶשׁ־שֶׁ֖בֶר בְּ⁠מִצְרָ֑יִם

(Some words not found in UHB: and=he/it_said see/lo/see! I_heard that/for/because/then/when there_is grain in,Egypt go_down to,(to) and,buy_grain to/for=us from=there so,that_we_may_live and=not die )

Alternate translation: [that there is much grain for sale in the country of Egypt] or [that the country of Egypt has a lot of grain that people can buy]

Note 2 topic: writing-politeness

רְדוּ־שָׁ֨מָּ⁠ה֙

go_down (Some words not found in UHB: and=he/it_said see/lo/see! I_heard that/for/because/then/when there_is grain in,Egypt go_down to,(to) and,buy_grain to/for=us from=there so,that_we_may_live and=not die )

Make sure that the way you translate Jacob’s command to his sons does not sound rude or harsh. Alternate translation: [So I want you to go there] or [So please go down there]

וְ⁠שִׁבְרוּ־לָ֣⁠נוּ מִ⁠שָּׁ֔ם

(Some words not found in UHB: and=he/it_said see/lo/see! I_heard that/for/because/then/when there_is grain in,Egypt go_down to,(to) and,buy_grain to/for=us from=there so,that_we_may_live and=not die )

Alternate translation: [and buy some grain for us all]

וְ⁠נִחְיֶ֖ה

so,that_we_may_live

Alternate translation: [so that we will survive] or [so that we will stay alive]

וְ⁠לֹ֥א נָמֽוּת

and=not die

Alternate translation: [and not die from hunger]
