UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

רְאֵה֙

see

Yahweh is speaking as if he wants Joshua to See or look at something. He is actually using the term to focus Joshua’s attention on what he is about to say. Your language may have a comparable expression that you can use in your translation. Alternate translation: “Pay attention”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / pastforfuture

נָתַ֣תִּי

I_give

Yahweh is using the past tense in order to refer to something that he will do in the future. He is doing this to show that the event will certainly happen. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use the future tense. Alternate translation: “I am about to give” or “I will certainly give”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy

נָתַ֣תִּי בְ⁠יָֽדְ⁠ךָ֔ אֶת־יְרִיח֖וֹ

(Some words not found in UHB: and=he/it_said YHWH to/towards Yəhōshūˊa/(Joshua) see I_give in/on/at/with,hand,your DOM Yərīḩō/(Jericho) and=DOM king,its soldiers the,army )

Here, hand represents by association the control or power that a person would have over something. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use an equivalent expression or state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “I have delivered Jericho to your control” or “I have allowed you to conquer Jericho”

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / ellipsis

גִּבּוֹרֵ֖י הֶ⁠חָֽיִל

(Some words not found in UHB: and=he/it_said YHWH to/towards Yəhōshūˊa/(Joshua) see I_give in/on/at/with,hand,your DOM Yərīḩō/(Jericho) and=DOM king,its soldiers the,army )

Yahweh is leaving out a word that a sentence would need in many languages to be complete. If your readers might misunderstand this, you could supply the word from the context. Alternate translation: “and the mighty men of valor” or “along with the mighty men of valor”

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns

גִּבּוֹרֵ֖י הֶ⁠חָֽיִל

(Some words not found in UHB: and=he/it_said YHWH to/towards Yəhōshūˊa/(Joshua) see I_give in/on/at/with,hand,your DOM Yərīḩō/(Jericho) and=DOM king,its soldiers the,army )

See how you translated the phrase mighty men of valor in 1:14. Alternate translation: “the valiant warriors”
