OET interlinear NUM 4:32

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: translate-unknown

וְ⁠עַמּוּדֵי֩ הֶ⁠חָצֵ֨ר סָבִ֜יב וְ⁠אַדְנֵי⁠הֶ֗ם וִֽ⁠יתֵדֹתָ⁠ם֙ וּ⁠מֵ֣יתְרֵי⁠הֶ֔ם

and,the_pillars_of of,the_courtyard all_around and,bases_of,their and,their_tent_of,pegs and,tent-cords_of,their

See how you referred to these items in [3:37](../03/37.md).

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns

וּ⁠לְ⁠כֹ֖ל עֲבֹדָתָ֑⁠ם

and=to/for=all service_of,their

If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea of service, you could express the same idea in another way. Alternate translation: [and for all the ways that they are served]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

וּ⁠בְ⁠שֵׁמֹ֣ת

and,by,names

The phrase by names means that the priests were to assign specific items to specific people by recording each person’s name with the items he was to be responsible for. You could indicate this explicitly in your translation if that would be helpful to your readers. Alternate translation: [and by each man’s name]

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / yousingular

תִּפְקְד֔וּ

assign

The word you is plural here because Yahweh is speaking to Moses and Aaron. So use the singular form in your translation if your language marks that distinction.

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

תִּפְקְד֔וּ

assign

The implication is that Moses and Aaron are to assign specific tasks and equipment to specific people. You could include this information if that would be helpful to your readers. See how you translated the similar phrase in [4:27](../04/27.md). Alternate translation: [you shall appoint]

Note 6 topic: figures-of-speech / possession

אֶת־כְּלֵ֖י מִשְׁמֶ֥רֶת מַשָּׂאָֽ⁠ם

DOM vessels_of responsible_of their_carrying_of,their

Yahweh is using the possessive form to describe vessels that are a burden and that require keeping. If a speaker of your language would not use the possessive form for this, you could express this idea in another way. Alternate translation: [the vessels that they must keep as they carry them]
