OET interlinear PSA 102:21

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / parallelism

לְ⁠סַפֵּ֣ר בְּ֭⁠צִיּוֹן שֵׁ֣ם יְהוָ֑ה וּ֝⁠תְהִלָּת֗⁠וֹ בִּ⁠ירוּשָׁלִָֽם

(Some words not found in UHB: to,hear groaning_of prisoners to,set_free sons_of die )

These two phrases to recount the name of Yahweh in Zion and his praise in Jerusalem mean basically the same thing. The second emphasizes the meaning of the first by repeating the same idea with different words. If it would be helpful to your readers, you could combine them and express the emphasis in another way. Alternate translation: [to extol and praise the name of Yahweh in Zion]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy

שֵׁ֣ם יְהוָ֑ה

(Some words not found in UHB: to,hear groaning_of prisoners to,set_free sons_of die )

Here, the name of Yahweh represents Yahweh’s reputation or who he is. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use an equivalent expression or state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [the great things that Yahweh is known for]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / ellipsis

וּ֝⁠תְהִלָּת֗⁠וֹ בִּ⁠ירוּשָׁלִָֽם

(Some words not found in UHB: to,hear groaning_of prisoners to,set_free sons_of die )

The psalmist is leaving out some of the words that in many languages a sentence would need in order to be complete. You can supply these words from the context if that would be clearer in your language. Alternate translation: [and to recount his praise in Jerusalem]

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / possession

וּ֝⁠תְהִלָּת֗⁠וֹ

(Some words not found in UHB: to,hear groaning_of prisoners to,set_free sons_of die )

The psalmist is using this possessive form to mean praise that is given to him. It may be helpful to clarify this for your readers. Alternate translation: [and to praise him]
