OET (OET-LV) And_ ˊĀkān _he_answered DOM Yəhōshūˊa and_he_said truly I I_have_sinned to/for_YHWH the_god_of Yisrāʼēl/(Israel) and_like_this and_like_this I_have_done.

OET (OET-RV) “It’s true,” Achan replied, “I’ve sinned against Yahweh the god of Yisrael. This is what I did:

SIL Open Translator’s Notes:

Section 7:1–26 Achan sinned and God punished him

Achan disobeyed God. He took some of the things from Jericho that God told them to destroy. Because of his sin, the Israelites lost the battle against the town of Ai. Yahweh showed the Israelites that Achan was the one who had sinned, and they punished Achan.

Here are some other possible section headings:

The defeat at Ai

Achan’s sin

Paragraph 7:20–21

Achan confessed his sin.

7:20a

“It is true,” Achan replied,

The Hebrew conjugation that the BSB leaves untranslated but the some English versions translate as “and” introduces the next event in the storyline. Introduce this next event in a way that is most natural in your language.

It is true: The Hebrew phrase that the BSB translates as It is true can also be translated:

truly (ESV)

Achan replied: Achan replied to Joshua’s warning.

7:20b

“I have sinned against the LORD, the God of Israel.

I have sinned against the LORD, the God of Israel: Achan acknowledged that he had sinned. This sin was against Yahweh, the God of Israel.

7:20c

This is what I did:

This is what I did: The Hebrew clause that the BSB translates as This is what I did is literally “and like this, and like this.” This is a Hebrew idiom. It indicates that what follows is his confession. Some English versions do not translate this clause. Translate it in a way that is natural in your language.

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom

וְ⁠כָ⁠זֹ֥את וְ⁠כָ⁠זֹ֖את עָשִֽׂיתִי

and,like,this and,like,this (Some words not found in UHB: and,he_answered ˊĀkān DOM Yəhōshūˊa/(Joshua) and,he_said true I sinned to/for=YHWH god_of Yisrael and,like,this and,like,this did )

Achan is using a common expression of his culture, like this and like this, to mean that he is about to provide exact details. If it would be clearer in your language, you could use an equivalent expression or state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [And this is exactly what happened]
