DEU 17:19 Parallel Verse View

Note: This view shows ‘verses’ which are not natural language units and hence sometimes only part of a sentence will be visible. Normally the OET discourages the reading of individual ‘verses’, but this view is only designed as a tool for doing comparisons of different translations. Click on any Bible version abbreviation down the left-hand side to see the verse in more of its context. The OET segments on this page are still very early looks into the unfinished 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: writing-pronouns

וְ⁠הָיְתָ֣ה

and,be

The pronoun it refers to the copy of the law from the previous verse. It may be helpful to clarify this for your readers. Alternate translation: [and the copy of the law shall be]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

וְ⁠קָ֥רָא ב֖⁠וֹ

and,read in=him/it

The implication is that the king must read a part of the law from his copy every day. You could include this information if that would be helpful to your readers. Alternate translation: [and he shall read some of the law]

Note 3 topic: grammar-connect-logic-goal

לְמַ֣עַן

so_that

Here, so that marks what follows as the goal or purpose of what came before. Use a connector in your language that makes it clear that this is the purpose.

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / doublet

אֶֽת־כָּל־דִּבְרֵ֞י הַ⁠תּוֹרָ֥ה הַ⁠זֹּ֛את וְ⁠אֶת־הַ⁠חֻקִּ֥ים הָ⁠אֵ֖לֶּה

DOM all/each/any/every words_of the,law the,this and=DOM the,statutes the=these

The terms this law and these statutes mean similar things. Moses is using the two terms together for emphasis. If it would be clearer for your readers, you could express the emphasis with a single phrase. Alternate translation: [all the important words of this law]

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / explicitinfo

לַ⁠עֲשֹׂתָֽ⁠ם

to,do,them

It might seem that the expression to do them contains extra information that is already contained in "to keep" and would not be natural to express in your language. If your translation already has that information, you may not need to repeat it here.
