Click on any Bible version abbreviation down the left-hand side to see the verse in more of its context. The OET segments on this page are still very early looks into the unfinished texts of the Open English Translation of the Bible. Please double-check these texts in advance before using in public.

UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: translate-unknown

הֶ⁠עָרֹ֔ב

(he⁠ˊāroⱱ)

These are probably the common large flies that bother humans and livestock. See how you translated this in 8:21

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / merism

מִ⁠פַּרְעֹ֖ה מֵ⁠עֲבָדָ֣י⁠ו וּ⁠מֵ⁠עַמּ֑⁠וֹ

(mi⁠parˊoh mē⁠ˊₐⱱādāy⁠v ū⁠mē⁠ˊamm⁠ō)

This list means “from everyone and everywhere” (in Egypt). This makes clear that there was a complete end of the plague. You should translate the list in such a way that it does not convey limitation to these specifics but is understood to imply universality.

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / hyperbole

לֹ֥א נִשְׁאַ֖ר אֶחָֽד

(loʼ nishʼar ʼeḩād)

This extreme statement emphasizes how thoroughly Yahweh removed the insects from the land. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use an equivalent expression from your language that emphasizes thoroughness or complete lack of the swarm. Alternate translation: “There was not a single one of these insects left in the whole land”
