OET interlinear ISA 30:14

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: writing-pronouns

וּ֠⁠שְׁבָרָ⁠הּ

and,someone,will_break_it

The pronoun he refers to Yahweh, and the pronoun it refers to the nation of Judah, described as a wall in the previous verse. It may be helpful to clarify this for your readers. Alternate translation: [And Yahweh will break Judah]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / simile

כְּ⁠שֵׁ֨בֶר נֵ֧בֶל יוֹצְרִ֛ים

like_[the],breaking_of vessel potter's

The point of this comparison is that just as a vessel of potters is smashed completely and cannot be repaired, so Yahweh will completely destroy the nation. If it would be helpful in your language, you could make this point explicitly. Alternate translation: [the way a potter’s vessel is smashed beyond repair]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / possession

נֵ֧בֶל יוֹצְרִ֛ים

vessel potter's

Isaiah is using the possessive form to describe a vessel that is characterized by being made by potters. If a speaker of your language would not use the possessive form for this, you could express this idea in another way. Alternate translation: [a jar made by potters]

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

כָּת֖וּת

shattered

The expression crushed is a passive verbal form. If it would be unnatural to use that form, you could express the idea in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. Alternate translation: [that one crushes]

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / hyperbole

וְ⁠לֹֽא יִמָּצֵ֤א בִ⁠מְכִתָּת⁠וֹ֙ חֶ֔רֶשׂ

and=not found among,fragment[s]_of,its sherd

Yahweh says And a shard will not be found among its fragments as an extreme statement for emphasis. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a different way to express the emphasis. Alternate translation: [There will be no pieces of it left at all]

Note 6 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

וְ⁠לֹֽא יִמָּצֵ֤א & חֶ֔רֶשׂ

and=not found & sherd

The expression a shard will not be found is a passive verbal form. If it would be unnatural to use that form, you could express the idea in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. Alternate translation: [And no one will find a shard]
