• a male and a female: These animals would procreate and repopulate the earth after the flood.


UTNuW Translation Notes:

מֵ⁠הָ⁠ע֣וֹף לְ⁠מִינֵ֗⁠הוּ

of,the,birds to=his/its=kind

וּ⁠מִן הַ⁠בְּהֵמָה֙ לְ⁠מִינָ֔⁠הּ

and=from the=cattle/livestock to=its=kind

Alternate translation: “and of every kind of animal,”

מִ⁠כֹּ֛ל רֶ֥מֶשׂ הָֽ⁠אֲדָמָ֖ה לְ⁠מִינֵ֑⁠הוּ

from=all creeping_(thing)_of the=soil to=his/its=kind

This phrase emphasizes that the birds and animals mentioned in the first half of this verse lived on land. Alternate translation: “including every kind of creature that lives on the land,”

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / infostructure

שְׁנַ֧יִם מִ⁠כֹּ֛ל יָבֹ֥אוּ אֵלֶ֖י⁠ךָ

two from=all they_went to,you

For some languages it is more natural to change the order of clauses in this sentence and say, “Two/Pairs of every kind of bird and every kind of animal, including every kind of creature that moves on the ground, will come to you … ” Do what is best in your language. Alternate translation: “two of every kind of animal will come to you” or “two of each kind of animal will come to you”

לְ⁠הַֽחֲיֽוֹת

to,keep_~_alive

Alternate translation: “to keep them alive on the ark” or “into the ark so that they stay alive.” or “so that you keep them alive in the ark”
