UTN uW Translation Notes:

General Information:

Moses continues speaking to the people of Israel.

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / you

(Occurrence 0) Take heed … you carefully observe

(Some words not found in UHB: guard in/on/at/with,outbreak the,leprous_skin_disease to=guard/protect very and,to,do according_to,all which/who instruct DOM,you_all the,priests the,Levitical just=as commanded,them carefully for=doing )

Moses speaks to the Israelites here as if they were one man, so the word “you” and the command “take heed” are singular.

(Occurrence 0) Take heed regarding any plague of leprosy

Alternate translation: “Pay attention if you suffer from leprosy” or “Pay attention if you have leprosy”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

(Occurrence 0) every instruction given to you which the priests, the Levites, teach you

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: “all of the instructions that I have given you and that the priests, who are Levites, teach you to do”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / you

(Occurrence 0) teach you … you will act

Moses here speaks to the Israelites as a group, so these instances of the word “you” are plural.

(Occurrence 0) as I commanded them, so you will act

Alternate translation: “you must make sure that you do exactly what I have commanded them”

(Occurrence 0) commanded them

The word “them” refers to the priests, who are Levites.
