Note 1 topic: writing-politeness

שָׂ֣א נָ֤א עֵינֶ֨י⁠ךָ֙

lift_up now eyes,your

See how you translated the idiom “lift … eyes” in verse 10. The Hebrew word for please is used to show politeness when making a proposal or to soften a command. It can also be translated “now” or omitted, depending on the context. Your translation here should not sound like God is begging. Alternate translation: “Look around now”

from/more_than the,place which/who you(ms)

For some languages it is more natural to put this phrase first in this quote and say, “From where you are standing, look all around you. Look …” Do what is best in your language. Alternate translation: “from where you are standing,”

וּ⁠רְאֵ֔ה

and,look

Consider whether or not it is better in your language to begin a new sentence here.

north,to and,south,to and,east,to and,west,to

See how you translated “east” and “west” in Gen 12:8. Alternate translation: “to the north, south, east, and west,” or “in all directions: north, south, east, and west,” or “around you in every direction,”
