6:13 OSHB variant note: הולך: (x-qere) ’הָל֖וֹךְ’: lemma_1980 n_0.0 morph_HVqa id_06o3f הָל֖וֹךְ

OET (OET-RV) and the seven priests holding the seven rams’ horns went in front of it—blowing the horns as they kept walking. The soldiers walking in front of them, and the rear guard walked behind Yahweh’s box while the horns were being blown.

SIL Open Translator’s Notes:

Section 5:13–6:27 Israel conquered Jericho by God’s power

The Israelites followed God’s instructions and marched around the wall of Jericho town. On the seventh day the wall of the town collapsed and they conquered the town. They killed everybody in it except for Rahab and her family.

Here are some other possible section headings:

The wall of Jericho fell

The conquering of Jericho

6:13a

And the seven priests carrying seven rams’ horns

the seven priests carrying seven rams’ horns: The phrase the seven priests carrying seven rams’ horns contains the same information as the similar phrase in 6:8b. You should translate this phrase in a similar way.

6:13b

kept marching ahead of the ark of the LORD

kept marching: The phrase kept marching means that they walked forward.

ahead of the ark of the LORD: The priests carried the trumpets and walked in front of the ark of Yahweh.

6:13c

and blowing the horns.

and blowing the horns: The priests blew the trumpets the entire time that they walked around the town.

6:13d

The armed troops went in front of them

The armed troops went in front of them: This repeats the information that is in 6:9a. You should translate this clause in a similar way.

6:13e

and the rear guard followed the ark of the LORD,

and the rear guard followed the ark of the LORD: This repeats the information that was given in 6:9c. You should translate this in a similar way.

6:13f

while the horns kept sounding.

while the horns kept sounding: The clause while the horns kept sounding indicates that the priests did not stop blowing their trumpets while they walked around the town.

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / reduplication

הֹלְכִ֣ים הָל֔וֹךְ

passed_on went_forward

The author is repeating the verb walking 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: [were walking continually]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / ellipsis

הָל֖וֹךְ וְ⁠תָק֥וֹעַ בַּ⁠שּׁוֹפָרֽוֹת

(Some words not found in UHB: and=seven the,priests carrying seven trumpets_of of_(the),rams'_horns to=(the)_face_of/in_front_of/before ark_of YHWH passed_on went_forward and,they_gave_blasts on,trumpets and,the_equipped,[man] went before,,them and,the,rearguard came after ark_of YHWH continually and,giving_blasts on,trumpets )

The author is leaving out some of the words that a sentence would need in many languages to be complete. You can supply these words from the context if that would be clearer in your language. Alternate translation: [while the priests were walking and blowing on the shofars]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / hendiadys

הָל֖וֹךְ וְ⁠תָק֥וֹעַ בַּ⁠שּׁוֹפָרֽוֹת

(Some words not found in UHB: and=seven the,priests carrying seven trumpets_of of_(the),rams'_horns to=(the)_face_of/in_front_of/before ark_of YHWH passed_on went_forward and,they_gave_blasts on,trumpets and,the_equipped,[man] went before,,them and,the,rearguard came after ark_of YHWH continually and,giving_blasts on,trumpets )

The author may be expressing a single idea by using two words connected with and. While the priests actually were walking and blowing on the shofars at the same time, the word walking might be describing in what way the priests were blowing, that is, continually. Alternate translation: [blowing continually on the shofars]

OET (OET-RV) and the seven priests holding the seven rams’ horns went in front of it—blowing the horns as they kept walking. The soldiers walking in front of them, and the rear guard walked behind Yahweh’s box while the horns were being blown.

Note: The OET-RV is still only a first draft, and so far only a few words have been (mostly automatically) matched to the Hebrew or Greek words that they’re translated from.
