Note: This view shows ‘verses’ which are not natural language units and hence sometimes only part of a sentence will be visible.

UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom

וְ⁠עַתָּ֗ה תְּנ֥וּ תוֹדָ֛ה לַ⁠יהוָ֥ה אֱלֹהֵֽי־אֲבֹתֵי⁠כֶ֖ם

and=now make confession to/for=YHWH god_of fathers_of,your_all's

In this context, give praise is an idiom that means “make confession.” The two ideas are closely related because, as one praises God for his holiness, at the same time one acknowledges one’s own lack of holiness. Alternate translation: [confess to Yahweh, the God of your ancestors, that you have sinned]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

אֱלֹהֵֽי־אֲבֹתֵי⁠כֶ֖ם

god_of fathers_of,your_all's

Fathers here means “ancestors.” Alternate translation: [the God of your ancestors]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

וַ⁠עֲשׂ֣וּ רְצוֹנ֑⁠וֹ וְ⁠הִבָּֽדְלוּ֙ מֵ⁠עַמֵּ֣י הָ⁠אָ֔רֶץ וּ⁠מִן־הַ⁠נָּשִׁ֖ים הַ⁠נָּכְרִיּֽוֹת

and,do will_of,his and,separate from,peoples_of the=earth/land and=from the,wives the,foreign

With regard to the other people groups, the word separate means ending the alliances that had been formed with them by marriage. With regard to the foreign wives, it is a figurative term for divorce. Alternate translation: [and obey him by divorcing and sending away your foreign wives, and thereby breaking the alliances you have formed with the other people groups living in the land]

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom

מֵ⁠עַמֵּ֣י הָ⁠אָ֔רֶץ

from,peoples_of the=earth/land

This expression refers to the other people groups who were living in and around the province of Judah. Alternate translation: [from the other people groups that are living in the land]

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / quotemarks

הַ⁠נָּשִׁ֖ים הַ⁠נָּכְרִיּֽוֹת

After this phrase, the book ends its quotation of what Ezra said to the assembly on this occasion. If you decided in [10:10](../10/10.md) to mark his words as a quotation, you should indicate their ending here with a closing quotation mark or with whatever other punctuation or convention your language uses to indicate the end of a quotation.
