and,he_will_deny (Some words not found in UHB: creature that/for/because/then/when sins and,it_will_act_unfaithfully breach_of_faith against,Yahweh and,he_will_deny (in)_his,fellow_of,citizen (in)_a,deposit or (in)_deposited,property_of care or (in)_a,robbery or defrauded DOM citizen_of,his_fellow )

As the Introduction to this chapter discusses, in the context of 6:2–3, the expression denies his fellow citizen is an idiom that refers to the actions whereby someone swears a socially-binding oath with a member of their family or clan and commits himself or herself to certain actions regarding the other person but afterward fails to behave in accordance with the stipulations of the oath. This could be done by stealing from the other individual, extorting them out of wages or any owed money, finding something that belongs to the other individual but failing to return it, or any other way of proving that the original oath was taken without intent to abide by it honestly. If the idiom here does not communicate this meaning in your language, consider using a more general expression. Alternate translation: [and he acts in such a way that he breaks an oath that he made with his fellow citizen]
