OET interlinear 1 SAM 6:5

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy

הַ⁠מַּשְׁחִיתִם֙ אֶת־הָ⁠אָ֔רֶץ

(Some words not found in UHB: and,you(pl)_will_make images_of your(pl)_tumors_of,your(pl) and,images_of your(pl)_mice_of,your(pl) [which,are]_ruining DOM the=earth/land and,you(pl)_will_give to,the_God_of Yisrael glory perhaps lighten DOM his/its=hand from,on,you(pl) and,from,on gods_of,your(pl) and,from,on land_of,your(pl) )

The priests and diviners are using the term land to represent the crops that the land has produced. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use an equivalent expression or plain language. Alternate translation: [the ones devouring your crops]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

וּ⁠נְתַתֶּ֛ם לֵ⁠אלֹהֵ֥י יִשְׂרָאֵ֖ל כָּב֑וֹד

(Some words not found in UHB: and,you(pl)_will_make images_of your(pl)_tumors_of,your(pl) and,images_of your(pl)_mice_of,your(pl) [which,are]_ruining DOM the=earth/land and,you(pl)_will_give to,the_God_of Yisrael glory perhaps lighten DOM his/its=hand from,on,you(pl) and,from,on gods_of,your(pl) and,from,on land_of,your(pl) )

The expression give glory to the God of Israel means that by sending these gifts, the Philistines will vindicate the justice of Yahweh by acknowledging that it was wrong for them to take his Box and that he was justified in punishing them with these plagues for doing that. See the similar use of this phrase in [Joshua 7:19](../../jos/07/19.md). Alternate translation: [and in that way you will be admitting to the God of Israel that you did wrong and that he was justified in punishing you with these plagues]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy

יָקֵ֤ל אֶת־יָד⁠וֹ֙ מֵֽ⁠עֲלֵי⁠כֶ֔ם וּ⁠מֵ⁠עַ֥ל אֱלֹהֵי⁠כֶ֖ם וּ⁠מֵ⁠עַ֥ל אַרְצְ⁠כֶֽם

lighten DOM his/its=hand from,on,you(pl) and,from,on gods_of,your(pl) and,from,on land_of,your(pl)

The priests and diviners are using the term hand to represent power. Alternate translation: [he will stop using his power so severely to punish you and your gods and your land]
