TSNTyndale Study Notes:

42:29-34 The brothers’ account focused on the accusation that they were spies and on the need to take Benjamin back to Egypt with them. They omitted their growing realization of divine retribution for their crime against Joseph.


UTNuW Translation Notes:

וְ֠⁠הָבִיאוּ אֶת אֲחִי⁠כֶ֣ם הַ⁠קָּטֹן֮ אֵלַ⁠י֒

and,bring DOM brother,your_all's the=small(sg) to=me

See how you translated a similar clause at the beginning of verse 20. Alternate translation: “Then bring your youngest brother back here to me” or “After that, you must come back here to me with your youngest brother.”

וְ⁠אֵֽדְעָ֗ה כִּ֣י לֹ֤א מְרַגְּלִים֙ אַתֶּ֔ם

and,know that/for/because/then/when not spies you_all

Consider again how you translated spies in Gen 42:9-11, 14, 16, 30, 31, 34. Alternate translation: “Then I will know that you are not spies,”

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / infostructure

כִּ֥י כֵנִ֖ים אַתֶּ֑ם

that/for/because/then/when honest you_all

For some languages it is more natural to change the order of clauses in this sentence and say, “Then I will know that you are honest/trustworthy men/people and not spies.” Do what is best in your language. Alternate translation: “but are honest men”

אֶת אֲחִי⁠כֶם֙ אֶתֵּ֣ן לָ⁠כֶ֔ם

DOM DOM brother,your_all's give_~_back to/for=you_all

Alternate translation: “Then I will release to you your brother who is in prison,”
