Note: This view shows ‘verses’ which are not natural language units and hence sometimes only part of a sentence will be visible.

The OET segments on this page are still very early looks into the unfinished texts of the Open English Translation of the Bible. Please double-check these texts in advance before using in public.

Here the word hand represents the whole person. In context, this expression refers to purchasing an animal from another, specifically a foreigner. If your language has a similar expression, consider using it here. If not, consider using a generic expression. Alternate translation: “And you shall not present the bread of your God f that you acquired from the son of a foreigner”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

בֶּן־ נֵכָ֗ר

son_of foreigner

Here, the word son refers generically to descendants and not just to male progeny. If your language has a generic word for children, consider using it here. Alternate translation: “a foreigner” or “someone who you consider to be a foreigner”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy

לֹ֥א תַקְרִ֛יבוּ אֶת־ לֶ֥חֶם אֱלֹהֵי⁠כֶ֖ם

not offer DOM food/grain/bread God,your_all's

This expression uses bread to represent food in general. Furthermore, this expression uses the possessive form to describe bread (that is, food) which is characterized by the fact that it is offered to God. If your language would not use the possessive form for this, you could use an equivalent expression from your culture or state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “you shall not present any food as a gift to your God”

Note 4 topic: writing-pronouns

מִכָּל־ אֵ֑לֶּה & בָּהֶם֙ & בָּ֔ם

Here, the words these and them refer to the disabled or deformed animals, not to the foreigner. If it would be helpful in your language, consider making this explicit. Alternate translation: “from any of these blemished animals…on these animals…on them”

Note 5 topic: grammar-connect-logic-result

כִּ֣י

that/for/because/then/when

The word translated as because indicates that what follows is a reason for what came before. Use a connector in your language that makes it clear that what follows is a reason for what came before. Alternate translation: “This is because”

מָשְׁחָתָ֤ם בָּהֶם֙

Alternate translation: “their ruin is on them” or “their deformity is on them”

Note 6 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

לֹ֥א יֵרָצ֖וּ לָ⁠כֶֽם

not not accepted for,you_all

If your language does not use the passive form in this way, you can state this in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. Alternate translation: “Yahweh will not accept them from you”
