LEV 4:2 Parallel Verse View

Note: This view shows ‘verses’ which are not natural language units and hence sometimes only part of a sentence will be visible. Normally the OET discourages the reading of individual ‘verses’, but this view is only designed for doing comparisons of different translations. Click on any Bible version abbreviation down the left-hand side to see the verse in more of its context. 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.

UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

בְּנֵ֣י יִשְׂרָאֵ֘ל

sons_of Yisrael

This expression speaks of the people of Israel in the time of Moses as if they were literally the sons of Israel. It means that they are the physical and spiritual descendants of Jacob, whose name God changed to Israel. If it would be clearer in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “the descendants of Israel”

לֵ⁠אמֹר֒

to=say

Alternate translation: “and say to them”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / distinguish

כִּֽי־תֶחֱטָ֤א בִ⁠שְׁגָגָה֙ מִ⁠כֹּל֙ מִצְוֺ֣ת יְהוָ֔ה אֲשֶׁ֖ר לֹ֣א תֵעָשֶׂ֑ינָה

that/for/because/then/when sins in/on/at/with,unintentional_wrong from=all commands YHWH which/who not done

The expression that shall not be done refers to certain of the commands of Yahweh, that is, to commandments that prohibit certain actions or behaviors. Alternate translation: “when he sins by mistake from any of the commands of Yahweh that say what you should not do”

Note 3 topic: writing-poetry

וְ⁠עָשָׂ֕ה מֵ⁠אַחַ֖ת מֵ⁠הֵֽנָּה

and,does against,any_one of,them

The expression from one from them uses repetition to refer to any individual command from the body of the commands of Yahweh. If your language can use repetition for emphasis in this manner, consider using a similar expression here. If not, then consider using a generic expression. Alternate translation: “and he does any one of them”
