OET interlinear JOEL 2:26

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / reduplication

וַ⁠אֲכַלְתֶּ֤ם אָכוֹל֙

and,you(pl)_will_eat to_eat

Yahweh is repeating the verb “eat” in order to intensify the idea that it expresses. If your language can repeat words for intensification, it would be appropriate to do that here in your translation. If not, your language may have another way of expressing the emphasis. Alternate translation: [And you will eat abundantly]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / 123person

אֶת־שֵׁ֤ם יְהוָה֙ אֱלֹ֣הֵי⁠כֶ֔ם

DOM name_of YHWH God_of,your(pl)

Yahweh is speaking about himself in the third person. If it would be helpful in your language, you could translate this in the first person. Alternate translation: [my name. I am Yahweh your God]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy

אֶת־שֵׁ֤ם

DOM name_of

Yahweh is using the term name to mean character or reputation, by association with the way a name represents a person’s identity. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [the character] or [the reputation]

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / explicitinfo

אֲשֶׁר־עָשָׂ֥ה עִמָּ⁠כֶ֖ם לְ⁠הַפְלִ֑יא

which/who he/it_had_made with,you(pl) by,doing_wonderfully

It might seem that the expression who has done with you, working wondrously contains extra information that would be unnatural to express in your language. If so, you can shorten it. Alternate translation: [who has done wondrously with you] or [who has done wonderful things for you]

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

וְ⁠לֹא־יֵבֹ֥שׁוּ עַמִּ֖⁠י לְ⁠עוֹלָֽם

and=not put_to_shame people_of,my forever,

The word translated as forever means “to indefinite futurity.” Alternate translation: [and for as long as anyone can imagine, my people will not feel shame]
