UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / explicitinfo

בֵּין & וּ⁠בֵֽינֵי⁠כֶם֙

between & and,between,you_all

Here, the text repeats the word “between” to describe how Moses spoke to Yahweh on behalf of the Israelites while they stood far away. If it is unnatural in your language to repeat a preposition, you could use a form that identifies physical distance between people. Alternate translation: “between … and you”

Note 2 topic: grammar-connect-logic-goal

לְ⁠הַגִּ֥יד

to=announce

Here, the word to marks “reveal to you the word of Yahweh” as the goal or purpose of Moses standing between Yahweh and the Israelites. Use a connector in your language that makes it clear that this is the purpose.

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy

אֶת־דְּבַ֣ר יְהוָ֑ה

DOM word/matter_of YHWH

Here, word represents everything that Yahweh said. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use an equivalent expression from your language or state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “what Yahweh told me to tell you”

Note 4 topic: grammar-connect-logic-result

כִּ֤י

that/for/because/then/when

The word translated as For indicates that what follows is a reason for what came before. Use a connector in your language that makes it clear that what follows is a reason for what came before. Alternate translation: “This is because”

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy

מִ⁠פְּנֵ֣י

from=face/in_front_of

Here, face represents the presence of something. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use an equivalent expression from your language or state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “of the presence of”

Note 6 topic: writing-quotations

לֵ⁠אמֹֽר

to=say

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