UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

וַ⁠יִּתְקַ֥ע בַּ⁠שּׁוֹפָ֖ר

and,sounded in/on/at/with,trumpet

The author means implicitly that Ehud blew on the shofar to summon the Israelites to battle. The UST models one way to indicate this explicitly.

Note 2 topic: translate-unknown

בַּ⁠שּׁוֹפָ֖ר

in/on/at/with,trumpet

A shofar is the horn of a ram (a male sheep) that has been made into a musical instrument. If your readers would not be familiar with this, in your translation, you could use the name of a similar object that your readers would recognize, or you could use a general expression. Alternate translation: [a loud horn]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy

לִ⁠פְנֵי⁠הֶֽם

at,head_of,them

See the discussion of this phrase in the Introduction to Judges, and see how you translated the similar expression in [2:3](../02/03.md).
