uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / exclamations

וְ⁠הִנֵּ֨ה

and=see/lo/see!

The author is using the term behold to focus attention on what happens next in this story. Your language may have a comparable expression that you could use in your translation.

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy

וְ⁠לֹא־הָיָ֨ה בָ⁠הֶ֥ם יָדַ֛יִם לָ⁠נ֖וּס הֵ֣נָּה וָ⁠הֵ֑נָּה

and=not it_became in/among=them power to,flee they(f) and,hither

Here, hand represents the capability of a person. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use an equivalent expression or state the meaning plainly. This statement seems to introduce the action that the author describes in the rest of this verse and in the next two verses, in which the soldiers from Ai and Bethel become surrounded by the Israelite soldiers. Alternate translation: [And it was not possible for them to flee here or there]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / merism

הֵ֣נָּה וָ⁠הֵ֑נָּה

they(f) and,hither

The author is speaking of two things in order to mean them and everything in between. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use an equivalent expression or plain language. Alternate translation: [anywhere]

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.

Acknowledgements: The Hebrew text, lemmas, and morphology are all thanks to the OSHB and some of the glosses are from Macula Hebrew.OET logo mark
