UTNuW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / quotesinquotes

כִּֽי־יִשְׁאָלְ⁠ךָ֥ בִנְ⁠ךָ֛ מָחָ֖ר לֵ⁠אמֹ֑ר מָ֣ה הָ⁠עֵדֹ֗ת וְ⁠הַֽ⁠חֻקִּים֙ וְ⁠הַ⁠מִּשְׁפָּטִ֔ים אֲשֶׁ֥ר צִוָּ֛ה יְהוָ֥ה אֱלֹהֵ֖י⁠נוּ אֶתְ⁠כֶֽם

that/for/because/then/when asks,you son,your in_the_future to=say what the,decrees and,the,statutes and,the,ordinances which/who commanded YHWH God,our DOM,you_all

If it would be clearer in your language, you could translate this so that there is not a quotation within a quotation. Alternate translation: “When your son asks you tomorrow about the testimonies and the statues and the ordinances that Yahweh our God commanded you”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / hypo

כִּֽי־יִשְׁאָלְ⁠ךָ֥ בִנְ⁠ךָ֛

that/for/because/then/when asks,you son,your

Moses is describing a hypothetical situation in order to tell the Israelites what they should do if it takes place. Use a natural form in your language for introducing a situation that could happen. Alternate translation: “This is what you will say if your son asks you”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / gendernotations

בִנְ⁠ךָ֛

son,your

Although the term son is masculine, Moses is using the word in a generic sense that includes both sons and daughters. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a phrase that makes this clear. Alternate translation: “your child”

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

מָחָ֖ר

in_the_future

Here tomorrow means “in the future.” If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “someday”

Note 5 topic: writing-quotations

לֵ⁠אמֹ֑ר

to=say

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

Note 6 topic: figures-of-speech / infostructure

מָ֣ה הָ⁠עֵדֹ֗ת וְ⁠הַֽ⁠חֻקִּים֙ וְ⁠הַ⁠מִּשְׁפָּטִ֔ים אֲשֶׁ֥ר צִוָּ֛ה יְהוָ֥ה אֱלֹהֵ֖י⁠נוּ אֶתְ⁠כֶֽם

what the,decrees and,the,statutes and,the,ordinances which/who commanded YHWH God,our DOM,you_all

Here, the question word translated as What means “Why.” If it would be more natural in your language, you could change the phrasing. Alternate translation: “Why did Yahweh our God command you the testimonies and the statutes and the ordinances”

Note 7 topic: figures-of-speech / yousingular

אֶתְ⁠כֶֽם

DOM,you_all

The word you here is plural. The Israelite children are speaking about all the Israelites who heard the law, so use the plural form in your translation if your language marks that distinction.
