UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / doublet

וְ⁠דָרַשְׁתָּ֧ וְ⁠חָקַרְתָּ֧ וְ⁠שָׁאַלְתָּ֖ הֵיטֵ֑ב

(Some words not found in UHB: they_came_out men sons_of worthless from,among,you and,led_~_astray DOM inhabitants town,their to=say go and,worship ʼElohīm other which/who not known )

The terms investigate, search out, and ask mean similar things. Moses is using the terms together for emphasis. If it would be clearer for your readers, you could express the emphasis with a single phrase. Alternate translation: “and carefully find out the truth of what happened”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / hypo

וְ⁠הִנֵּ֤ה

(Some words not found in UHB: they_came_out men sons_of worthless from,among,you and,led_~_astray DOM inhabitants town,their to=say go and,worship ʼElohīm other which/who not known )

This phrase is introducing a hypothetical condition. Use a natural form in your language for introducing a situation that could happen. Alternate translation: “and if, behold”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / parallelism

אֱמֶת֙ נָכ֣וֹן הַ⁠דָּבָ֔ר

(Some words not found in UHB: they_came_out men sons_of worthless from,among,you and,led_~_astray DOM inhabitants town,their to=say go and,worship ʼElohīm other which/who not known )

These two clauses mean basically the same thing. The second clause emphasizes the meaning of the first by repeating the same idea with different words. If it would be helpful to your readers, you could connect the clauses with a word that shows that the second clause is repeating the first one, not saying something additional. Alternate translation: “it is true, indeed, the matter is certain”

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

נֶעֶשְׂתָ֛ה הַ⁠תּוֹעֵבָ֥ה הַ⁠זֹּ֖את בְּ⁠קִרְבֶּֽ⁠ךָ

(Some words not found in UHB: they_came_out men sons_of worthless from,among,you and,led_~_astray DOM inhabitants town,their to=say go and,worship ʼElohīm other which/who not known )

If your language does not use the passive form in this way, you can state this in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. Alternate translation: “that the people of the city have done this terrible thing”
