TSNTyndale Study Notes:

20:1-17 The brief statement of the terms of the covenant (see also Deut 5:6-21).


UTNuW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns

וְ⁠עֹ֥שֶׂה חֶ֖סֶד לַ⁠אֲלָפִ֑ים לְ⁠אֹהֲבַ֖⁠י

and,showing steadfast_love to,thousands of,love,me

If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea of faithfulness, you can express the same idea in another way. Alternate translation: “I am faithful to the covenant with thousands of those who love me”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / ellipsis

לַ⁠אֲלָפִ֑ים

to,thousands

Alternate translation: “Generation” is implied by the previous verse. If it would be helpful in your language, you could supply necessary words from the context. Alternate translation: “to the thousandth generation” or “for a thousand generations”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy

לַ⁠אֲלָפִ֑ים לְ⁠אֹהֲבַ֖⁠י

to,thousands of,love,me

Here, thousands may mean: (1) “forever,” that is, “to all descendants forever” (2) a number too many to count. Alternate translation: “for every generation” or “forever to innumerable people who love me”
