uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: grammar-connect-logic-result

וַ⁠יִּפְתַּ֨ח עֶזְרָ֤א הַ⁠סֵּ֨פֶר֙ לְ⁠עֵינֵ֣י כָל־הָ⁠עָ֔ם כִּֽי־מֵ⁠עַ֥ל כָּל־הָ⁠עָ֖ם

(Some words not found in UHB: and,he_opened ˊEzrāʼ the,scroll to,the_eyes_of all the,people that/for/because/then/when from=under all/each/any/every the,people it_became and,just,as,he_opened_[it] stood_up all the,people )

If it would be helpful in your language, you could reverse the order of these phrases, since the first phrase gives the reason for the result that is described in the second phrase. Alternate translation: [Ezra was up on the platform above the people, so they were able to see him when he opened the book.]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / synecdoche

לְ⁠עֵינֵ֣י כָל־הָ⁠עָ֔ם

to,the_eyes_of all the,people

Here, Nehemiah uses the eyes of the people to represent the people themselves, in the act of observing. Alternate translation: [where all the people could see]

Note 3 topic: translate-symaction

עָֽמְד֥וּ כָל־הָ⁠עָֽם

stood_up all the,people

The people stood up as a symbolic way of showing respect for Yahweh and his law. If it would be helpful to your readers, you could say this explicitly. Alternate translation: [the people stood up to show their respect for Yahweh and his law]

כָל־הָ⁠עָ֔ם

all the,people

In this verse, all is not a generalization as it is in verse 1. Rather, it means all the people who were there. Alternate translation: [the people]

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.
