OET (OET-RV) “Why are you asking about my name,” Yahweh’s messenger replied. “You simply couldn’t understand.”
Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / rquestion
(Occurrence 0) Why do you ask my name?
(Some words not found in UHB: and=he/it_said for=him/it angel YHWH to/for=what this ask about,name,my and=he wonderful )
The angel asks this question as a rebuke. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express this question as a statement. Alternate translation: “You should not ask me what my name is.”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
(Occurrence 0) It is wonderful
(Some words not found in UHB: and=he/it_said for=him/it angel YHWH to/for=what this ask about,name,my and=he wonderful )
It may be helpful to explain more explicitly why they should not ask his name. Alternate translation: “It is too wonderful for you to understand”
13:17-18 The Lord’s name is a divine secret (Gen 32:29; Exod 3:13-14). God knows our names, but in addressing him we are limited to terms of wonder and adoration, for the true essence of the infinite cannot be expressed or understood by the finite.
