BrLXX Καὶ ἐλάλησεν Ἀαρὼν πρὸς Μωυσῆν, λέγων, εἰ σήμερον προσαγιόχασι τὰ περὶ τῆς ἁμαρτίας αὐτῶν, καὶ τὰ ὁλοκαυτώματα αὐτῶν ἔναντι Κυρίου, καὶ συμβέβηκέ μοι τοιαῦτα, καὶ φάγομαι τὰ περὶ τῆς ἁμαρτίας σήμερον, μὴ ἀρεστὸν ἔται Κυρίῳ;

BrTr And Aaron spoke to Moses, saying, If they have brought nigh to-day their sin-offerings, and their whole-burnt-offerings before the Lord, and these events have happened to me, and yet I should eat to-day of the sin-offerings, would it be pleasing to the Lord?

ULT And Aaron spoke to Moses, “Look, today they presented their sin offering and their burnt offering to the face of Yahweh, and it has happened to me according to these things. But if I ate the sin offering today, would it have been good in the eyes of Yahweh?”

UST But Aaron replied, “Consider this: today, the people brought their purifying sacrifices and their wholly burned sacrifices to Yahweh in the precincts where he lives among the Israelite people. Yet, nonetheless, these horrible things have happened to me! Even if I myself had eaten the meat of the purifying sacrifice today, would Yahweh have approved of everything that has happened here today, even the death of my sons?”

BSB § But Aaron replied to Moses, “Behold, this very day they presented their sin offering and their burnt offering before the LORD. Since these things have happened to me, if I had eaten the sin offering today, would it have been acceptable in the sight of the LORD?”

UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: writing-pronouns

הִקְרִ֨יבוּ אֶת־חַטָּאתָ֤⁠ם וְ⁠אֶת־עֹֽלָתָ⁠ם֙

presented DOM sin_offering,their and=DOM burnt_offering,their

Here the pronouns they and their refer to Aaron’s four sons, who had offered burnt offerings and sin offerings on their own behalf as well as on the behalf of the people. It may be helpful to clarify this for your readers. Alternate translation: “my four sons presented their sin offerings and their burnt offerings”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy

לִ⁠פְנֵ֣י יְהוָ֔ה

to=(the)_face_of/in_front_of/before YHWH

See how you translated this expression in 1:5. Alternate translation: “in the precincts of the tent of meeting, where Yahweh lived among the Israelites” or “in Yahweh’s presence”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / euphemism

וַ⁠תִּקְרֶ֥אנָה אֹתִ֖⁠י כָּ⁠אֵ֑לֶּה

and,happened DOM=me as,these

Aaron is referring to the death of his sons, Nadab and Abihu, in a polite way by using the phrase it has happened to me according to these things. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a polite way of referring to these events in your language, or you could state this plainly. Alternate translation: “and now my sons lie dead outside of the camp, having been consumed by Yahweh’s fire”

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / rquestion

וְ⁠אָכַ֤לְתִּי חַטָּאת֙ הַ⁠יּ֔וֹם הַ⁠יִּיטַ֖ב בְּ⁠עֵינֵ֥י יְהוָֽה

and,eaten sin the=day the,good in/on=both_eyes_of YHWH

Aaron here uses the question form to question Moses about the appropriateness of eating the meat of the sin offering when his two sons were killed within the holy space of the tent of meeting itself. His question anticipates a negative response. If you would not use the question form for this purpose in your language, you could translate this as a statement or an exclamation. Alternate translation, followed by a period rather than a question mark: “But even if I ate the sin offering today, it would not have been good in the eyes of Yahweh.”

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy

הַ⁠יִּיטַ֖ב בְּ⁠עֵינֵ֥י יְהוָֽה׃

Here, eyes represent the sight of a person and, by extension, their judgment or approval. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use an equivalent expression from your language or state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “would it have been good in Yahweh’s judgment”

Note 6 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom

הַ⁠יִּיטַ֖ב בְּ⁠עֵינֵ֥י יְהוָֽה׃

The expression good in the eyes of Yahweh is an idiom that means “to be pleasing to Yahweh” or “to be acceptable to Yahweh.” If it would be helpful in your language, you could use an equivalent expression from your language or state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “would Yahweh have approved” or “would it have pleased Yahweh”
