OET interlinear NUM 11:14

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: grammar-connect-logic-result

לֹֽא־אוּכַ֤ל אָנֹכִי֙ לְ⁠בַדִּ֔⁠י לָ⁠שֵׂ֖את אֶת־כָּל־הָ⁠עָ֣ם הַ⁠זֶּ֑ה כִּ֥י כָבֵ֖ד מִמֶּֽ⁠נִּי

not able I I,,alone to,carry DOM all/each/any/every the,people the=this that/for/because/then/when heavy for,me

If it would be more natural in your language, you could reverse the order of these phrases, since heavy from me gives the reason for the result that I myself am not able by myself to carry all this people describes. Alternate translation: [Carrying all this people by myself is heavy from me. So, I, I am not able to do it]

Note 2 topic: writing-pronouns

לֹֽא־אוּכַ֤ל אָנֹכִי֙

not able I

Moses is stating the pronoun I separately, even though the verb translated as I am … able already includes this meaning. He is doing that to emphasize that he is definitely not able to do this. If a speaker of your language would use an explicit pronoun for the same purpose, you may want to use that construction in your translation. If not, your language may have other ways of showing that emphasis. Alternate translation: [I am certainly not able]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

לָ⁠שֵׂ֖את אֶת־כָּל־הָ⁠עָ֣ם הַ⁠זֶּ֑ה

to,carry DOM all/each/any/every the,people the=this

Here, Moses is speaking of the responsibility to lead and care for the Israelites as if it were a heavy object that he had to carry. Your language may have a comparable expression that you can use in your translation, or you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [to care for all this people]

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

כָבֵ֖ד מִמֶּֽ⁠נִּי

heavy for,me

Here, Moses is speaking of taking care of the Israelites as if it were a heavy burden that he must carry. Your language may have a comparable expression that you can use in your translation, or you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [it is too hard for me to do]

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / ellipsis

כָבֵ֖ד

heavy

Here, the word heavy could describe: (1) carrying the people. Alternate translation: [this burden is heavy] (2) the people. Alternate translation: [they are heavy]
