OET interlinear JOS 24:7

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: writing-pronouns

וַ⁠יִּצְעֲק֣וּ

and,cried_out

The pronoun they refers to the ancestors of the Israelites whom Yahweh brought out of Egypt. Alternate translation: “And your ancestors cried out”

Note 2 topic: writing-pronouns

וַ⁠יָּבֵ֨א עָלָ֤י⁠ו אֶת הַ⁠יָּם֙ וַ⁠יְכַסֵּ֔⁠הוּ

and=he/it_brought on/upon/above=him/it DOM the=sea and,covered,them

The pronoun him refers in each instance to the Egyptians. It may be more natural in your language to use a plural pronoun. Alternate translation: “and he brought the sea over them and covered them”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / synecdoche

QUOTE_NOT_FOUND: And your eyes saw

(Some words not found in UHB: and,cried_out to/towards YHWH and=he/it_assigned darkness between,you_all and=between the,Egyptians and=he/it_brought on/upon/above=him/it DOM the=sea and,covered,them and,saw your_all's=eyes DOM which/who did in/on/at/with,Egypt and,lived in/on/at/with,wilderness days long )

Yahweh is using one part of the Israelites, their eyes, to mean all of them in the act of seeing. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “And you saw”

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy

יָמִ֥ים רַבִּֽים

days long

Yahweh is using the term days by association to mean time, since time is made up of days. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use an equivalent expression or plain language. Alternate translation: “for a long time”
