DEU 13:12 Parallel Verse View

Note: This view shows ‘verses’ which are not necessarily natural language units and hence sometimes only part of a sentence will be visible—click on any Bible version abbreviation down the left-hand side to see the verse in more of its context. Normally the OET discourages the reading of individual ‘verses’, but this view is only designed as a tool for Bible-translators and others doing comparisons of different translations—the older translations are further down the page (so you can read up from the bottom to trace the English translation history). The OET segments on this page are still early looks into the drafted texts of the Open English Translation of the Bible—please double-check these texts in advance before using in public.

UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: grammar-connect-condition-hypothetical

כִּֽי

(Some words not found in UHB: that/for/because/then/when hear in,one_of your(pl)_cities_of,your which/who YHWH God_of,your giving to/for=yourself(m) to,dwell there to=say )

Moses is using the word If to introduce a possible condition that he describes in this verse through verse 14. It is a warning against idolatry. The instruction for what they should do if this condition happens comes in verse 15. Use a natural form in your language for introducing a situation such as this. Alternate translation: [Should it happen that]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / ellipsis

תִשְׁמַ֞ע

(Some words not found in UHB: that/for/because/then/when hear in,one_of your(pl)_cities_of,your which/who YHWH God_of,your giving to/for=yourself(m) to,dwell there to=say )

Moses is leaving out some of the words that in many languages a sentence would need in order to be complete. You could supply these implied words if it would be clearer in your language. Alternate translation: [you hear someone speak]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / explicitinfo

עָרֶ֗י⁠ךָ אֲשֶׁר֩ יְהוָ֨ה אֱלֹהֶ֜י⁠ךָ נֹתֵ֥ן לְ⁠ךָ֛ לָ⁠שֶׁ֥בֶת שָׁ֖ם

your(pl)_cities_of,your (Some words not found in UHB: that/for/because/then/when hear in,one_of your(pl)_cities_of,your which/who YHWH God_of,your giving to/for=yourself(m) to,dwell there to=say )

The expression your cities that Yahweh your God gives to you to live there contains extra information that would be unnatural to express in some languages. If this is true of your language, you could shorten the expression. Alternate translation: [your cities that Yahweh your God gives to you]

Note 4 topic: writing-quotations

לֵ⁠אמֹֽר

to=say

Here the word saying introduces direct speech. Consider natural ways of doing that in your own language.
