UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

ἀθετήσας τις νόμον Μωϋσέως χωρὶς οἰκτιρμῶν ἐπὶ δυσὶν ἢ τρισὶν μάρτυσιν ἀποθνῄσκει

/having/_rejecting anyone /the/_law ˱of˲_Moses without compassions by two or three witnesses /is/_dying_off

Here the author is referring to Deuteronomy 17:2–7, which provides regulations concerning people who completely reject God’s covenant and worship other gods. The specific phrasing here comes from Deuteronomy 17:6. The phrase without mercy probably comes from Deuteronomy 13:8, which similarly refers to how people who participate in idolatry should be put to death. If it would be helpful in your language, you could be more specific about what “rejecting” means and what punishment the author is referring to. Alternate translation: [Anyone having set aside the law of Moses to worship another God dies without mercy when two or three witnesses testify to it]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / pastforfuture

ἀποθνῄσκει

/is/_dying_off

Here, the word dies is in present tense because the author is referring to what was generally and consistently true. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a tense that naturally identifies something that was generally true. Alternate translation: [died]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy

ἀποθνῄσκει

/is/_dying_off

Here, the word dies means “is put to death.” It does not refer to a natural or spontaneous death. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a word or phrase that refers to someone being killed. Alternate translation: [is put to death] or [is killed]

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns

χωρὶς οἰκτιρμῶν

without compassions

If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea of mercy, you could express the idea in another natural way. Alternate translation: [without anyone being merciful] or [without hesitation]
