OET interlinear NEH 5:19

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / aside

זָכְרָ⁠ה־לִּ֥⁠י אֱלֹהַ֖⁠י לְ⁠טוֹבָ֑ה

remember, (Some words not found in UHB: remember, to/for=me my_God_of,my for,good all which/who done on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in the,people (the),this )

As in 4:4, here Nehemiah speaks directly to God. You could indicate this by putting this verse in quotation marks. Review the note at 4:4 about asides like this if that would be helpful.

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom

זָכְרָ⁠ה־לִּ֥⁠י & לְ⁠טוֹבָ֑ה

remember, (Some words not found in UHB: remember, to/for=me my_God_of,my for,good all which/who done on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in the,people (the),this )

To remember someone for good is an idiom that means to reward someone with good things for the good that they have done.

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom

זָכְרָ⁠ה־לִּ֥⁠י אֱלֹהַ֖⁠י לְ⁠טוֹבָ֑ה

remember, (Some words not found in UHB: remember, to/for=me my_God_of,my for,good all which/who done on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in the,people (the),this )

In this context, remember means to think about someone and consider what action you can take on their behalf. Nehemiah is not suggesting that God has forgotten him. Alternate translation: [think of me]

כֹּ֥ל אֲשֶׁר־עָשִׂ֖יתִי עַל־הָ⁠עָ֥ם הַ⁠זֶּֽה

(Some words not found in UHB: remember, to/for=me my_God_of,my for,good all which/who done on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in the,people (the),this )

Nehemiah is once again leaving out some words that a sentence would ordinarily need. He is asking God to do good things for him because of all the good things he has done for the people of Judah as their governor. Alternate translation: [reward me because of all the good that I have done for the people of Judah]
