OET interlinear 2 KI 10:21

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / gendernotations

אִ֖ישׁ

(a)_man

Here the masculine term a man has a generic sense that includes both men and women. If it would be helpful to your readers, you could use language in your translation that is clearly inclusive of both men and women. Alternate translation: [a person]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

בֵּ֣ית הַ⁠בַּ֔עַל

(Some words not found in UHB: and,he_sent Yēhūʼ/(Jehu) in=all Yisrael and=they_came all/each/any/every worshipers_of (of,[the]_Baal and=not left (a)_man which/who not come and=they_came house_of of_(the),Baal and,it_was_filled house_of of_(the),Baal end to,mouth )

See how you translated the similar expression in [5:18](../05/18.md). Alternate translation: [the temple of Baal]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

וַ⁠יִּמָּלֵ֥א בֵית־הַ⁠בַּ֖עַל

(Some words not found in UHB: and,he_sent Yēhūʼ/(Jehu) in=all Yisrael and=they_came all/each/any/every worshipers_of (of,[the]_Baal and=not left (a)_man which/who not come and=they_came house_of of_(the),Baal and,it_was_filled house_of of_(the),Baal end to,mouth )

The expression was filled is a passive verbal form. If your language would not use that form, you could express the idea in active form or in another way that would be natural in your language. Alternate translation: [and they filled the house of Baal]

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom

פֶּ֥ה לָ⁠פֶֽה

(Some words not found in UHB: and,he_sent Yēhūʼ/(Jehu) in=all Yisrael and=they_came all/each/any/every worshipers_of (of,[the]_Baal and=not left (a)_man which/who not come and=they_came house_of of_(the),Baal and,it_was_filled house_of of_(the),Baal end to,mouth )

The author is using the term mouth to mean “end” or “side.” If this term does not have that meaning in your language, you could use a comparable expression from your language that does have that meaning, or you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [from end to end] or [to capacity]
