Normally the OET discourages the reading of individual ‘verses’, but this view is only designed for doing comparisons of different translations.

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor
He will not lift your transgressions and your sins
(Some words not found in UHB: and=he/it_said Yəhōshūˊa/(Joshua) to/towards the,people not able to,serve DOM YHWH that/for/because/then/when ʼElohīm holy he/it god jealous he/it not forgive to,transgressions,your_all's and,to,sins,your_all's )
Joshua is speaking as if transgressions and sins were objects that could be lifted away from someone. If it would be clearer in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “He will not forgive your transgressions and your sins”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / doublet
your transgressions and your sins
(Some words not found in UHB: and=he/it_said Yəhōshūˊa/(Joshua) to/towards the,people not able to,serve DOM YHWH that/for/because/then/when ʼElohīm holy he/it god jealous he/it not forgive to,transgressions,your_all's and,to,sins,your_all's )
The terms transgressions and sins mean similar things. Joshua is using the two terms together for emphasis. If it would be clearer for your readers, you could express the emphasis with a single phrase. Alternate translation: “your serious sins”
