UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / hypo

פֶּ֥ן

lest

Moses is using the word lest to introduce a hypothetical condition as a warning. Use a natural form in your language for introducing a situation that could happen. Alternate translation: “in case”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy

יִפְתֶּ֖ה לְבַבְ⁠כֶ֑ם

deceived heart,you_all

Here heart represents a person’s desire and will. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use an equivalent expression from your language or state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “you are deceived by your desires”

Note 3 topic: grammar-collectivenouns

יִפְתֶּ֖ה לְבַבְ⁠כֶ֑ם

deceived heart,you_all

In this verse, the word heart is singular in form, but it refers to all the hearts of the Israelites as a group. If it would be helpful in your language, you could say this plainly. Alternate translation: “your hearts are deceived”

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

יִפְתֶּ֖ה לְבַבְ⁠כֶ֑ם

deceived heart,you_all

If your language does not use this passive form, you could express the idea in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. Alternate translation: “your heart causes you to disobey”

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

וְ⁠סַרְתֶּ֗ם

and,turn_away

Here, turn aside means to disobey or stop following. Moses is speaking of commandments as if they were a path and saying that disobeying commandments is like turning aside from that path. If this phrase does not have that meaning in your language, you could use an idiom from your language that does have this meaning or state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “and disobey”
