UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

בְּנֵ֣י יִשְׂרָאֵ֔ל

sons_of Yisrael

See the Introduction to Judges for a discussion of the phrase sons of. Alternate translation: [the descendants of Israel]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / reduplication

מ֥וֹת יוּמָֽת

to_die he_must_die

The oath repeats forms of the verb die in order to intensify the expression of that idea. If your language can repeat words for intensification, it would be appropriate to do that here in your translation. If not, your language may have another way of expressing the intensification. Alternate translation: [He shall certainly be caused to die]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

מ֥וֹת יוּמָֽת

to_die he_must_die

If your language does not use this passive form, you could express the idea in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. Alternate translation: [We shall certainly put him to death]
