לָשֵׂ֥את חֵ֖טְא לָמֽוּת
to,bear sin to,die
Yahweh is using to lift up sin as a common expression of the culture to mean “to incur guilt.” If this phrase does not have that meaning for your readers, you could use a comparable expression from your language that does have that meaning, or you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [to incur guilt and die]
Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns
חֵ֖טְא
sin
If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea of sin, you could express the same idea in another way. Alternate translation: [what they have done wrong]
