SIL Open Translator’s Notes:

Section 4:1–5:1 The Israelites commemorated the crossing of the Jordan River

Twelve men from among the Israelites each took a stone from the middle of the Jordan River. With these stones Joshua built a monument to remind the Israelite people, and their descendants, about how God helped them cross the river.

Here are some other possible section headings:

Setting up memorial stones

Twelve memorial stones

A reminder that God brought them to the promised land

4:22a

you are to tell them,

you are to tell them: The clause you are to tell them indicates that the parents of the children must explain to them the meaning of the stones.

In some languages, the quote formula between 4:22a-b may need to be made explicit. For example, you could say:

Then you should explain it to your children. Say to them…

4:22b

‘Israel crossed the Jordan on dry ground.’

Israel: The term Israel refers to all the Israelite people.

crossed: The word crossed means that the Israelite people walked across the Jordan River.

the Jordan: The phrase the Jordan refers to the Jordan River. This phrase is more literally “this Jordan.” The word “this” probably adds emphasis: “this very Jordan River that you see before your eyes.” In some languages it is not natural to include the word “this.” Try to find a natural way to add emphasis. If you can’t find a natural way to do this, then translate it as “the Jordan River.”

on dry ground: The phrase on dry ground refers to the riverbed of the Jordan. This was dry because Yahweh made the river stop flowing.

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / gendernotations

אֶת־בְּנֵי⁠כֶ֣ם

DOM DOM (Some words not found in UHB: and,you(pl)_will_make_known_to DOM children_of,your(pl) to=say on,ground crossed Yisrael DOM the,Jordan (the),this )

Although the term sons is masculine, Joshua is using the word here in a generic sense that includes both male and female descendants. Alternate translation: [your children]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / ellipsis

וְ⁠הוֹדַעְתֶּ֖ם אֶת־בְּנֵי⁠כֶ֣ם

(Some words not found in UHB: and,you(pl)_will_make_known_to DOM children_of,your(pl) to=say on,ground crossed Yisrael DOM the,Jordan (the),this )

Joshua is leaving out some of the words that a sentence would need in many languages to be complete. If it would be helpful in your language, you could supply these words from the context. Alternate translation: [then you shall cause your sons to know the meaning of these stones] or [then you shall cause your sons to know why these stones are here]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / quotesinquotes

וְ⁠הוֹדַעְתֶּ֖ם אֶת־בְּנֵי⁠כֶ֣ם לֵ⁠אמֹ֑ר בַּ⁠יַּבָּשָׁה֙ עָבַ֣ר יִשְׂרָאֵ֔ל אֶת־הַ⁠יַּרְדֵּ֖ן הַ⁠זֶּֽה

(Some words not found in UHB: and,you(pl)_will_make_known_to DOM children_of,your(pl) to=say on,ground crossed Yisrael DOM the,Jordan (the),this )

If it would be clearer in your language, you could translate this so that there is not a quotation within a quotation. Alternate translation: [telling them that Israel crossed over this Jordan on dry ground]

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / ellipsis

בַּ⁠יַּבָּשָׁה֙ עָבַ֣ר יִשְׂרָאֵ֔ל אֶת־הַ⁠יַּרְדֵּ֖ן הַ⁠זֶּֽה

(Some words not found in UHB: and,you(pl)_will_make_known_to DOM children_of,your(pl) to=say on,ground crossed Yisrael DOM the,Jordan (the),this )

The parents would be leaving out some of the words that in many languages a sentence would need in order to be complete. You can supply these words from the context if that would be clearer in your language. Alternate translation: [These stones are here so that all future generations will remember that Israel crossed over this Jordan on dry ground]
