UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: grammar-connect-condition-hypothetical

וְ⁠כִֽי־יָג֨וּר אִתְּ⁠ךָ֜ גֵּ֗ר וְ⁠עָ֣שָׂה פֶסַח֮ לַ⁠יהוָה֒

and=because/when resides with,you alien and,celebrate passover to/for=YHWH

This is a two-part hypothetical situation. It describes the circumstance and desire of the sojourner; the next portion says what he must do. You will need to use whatever form your language uses to mark something as potentially true.

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / youcrowd

אִתְּ⁠ךָ֜

with,you

Here, you is singular, however it is used to address a crowd. If the singular form would not be natural in your language for someone who was speaking to a group of people, you could use the plural forms of “you” in your translation.

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

הִמּ֧וֹל ל֣⁠וֹ כָל־זָכָ֗ר

circumcised to=him/it all male

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: “someone must circumcise all males in his household”

Note 4 topic: grammar-connect-logic-goal

הִמּ֧וֹל ל֣⁠וֹ כָל־זָכָ֗ר וְ⁠אָז֙ יִקְרַ֣ב לַ⁠עֲשֹׂת֔⁠וֹ

circumcised to=him/it all male and,then come_near to,celebrate,it

The sojourner will be circumcised in order to draw near to keep the Passover. Some languages may need to place the purpose clause first. Alternate translation: “in order draw near to keep it all his males must be circumcised”

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy

כְּ⁠אֶזְרַ֣ח הָ⁠אָ֑רֶץ

like,native_of the=earth/land

Here, land refers to Canaan—which is the land that the Israelites will soon live in. The expression a native of the land means a person who is a native Israelite. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use an equivalent expression or plain language. Alternate translation: “those who are Israelites by birth”

Note 6 topic: figures-of-speech / doublenegatives

וְ⁠כָל־עָרֵ֖ל לֹֽא־יֹ֥אכַל בּֽ⁠וֹ

and=all uncircumcised not eat in/on/over=him/it

If this double negative would be misunderstood in your language, you could translate it as a positive statement. Alternate translation: “And only a circumcised person may eat it”
