About verse numbering: LEV 5:24

Bible versions divide some chapters and verses differently (called “versification”). LEV 5:24 is valid in the numbering listed below, but is outside the OET-RV / English numbering used for the ordinary parallel pages.

In Luth (Luther numbering), LEV 5:24 corresponds to OET-RV / English LEV 6:5.

In OET-LV (OET-LV numbering), LEV 5:24 corresponds to OET-RV / English LEV 6:5.

In BrLXX, BrTr (lxx numbering), LEV 5:24 corresponds to OET-RV / English LEV 6:5.

In JPS (org numbering), LEV 5:24 corresponds to OET-RV / English LEV 6:5.

The page below is a copy of the ordinary OET-RV / English page; its headings and navigation retain that numbering.

Note: This view shows ‘verses’ which are not necessarily natural language units and hence sometimes only part of a sentence will be visible—click on any Bible version abbreviation down the left-hand side to see the verse in more of its context. Normally the OET discourages the reading of individual ‘verses’, but this view is only designed as a tool for Bible-translators and others doing comparisons of different translations—the older translations are further down the page (so you can read up from the bottom to trace the English translation history). The OET segments on this page are still early looks into the drafted texts of the Open English Translation of the Bible—please double-check these texts in advance before using in public.

(Some words not found in UHB: or from=all which/who swore on/upon/above=him/it to,falsehood and,he_will_repay DOM=him/it in,head_of,its and,its_of,fifth(s) add on/upon/above=him/it to,[the_one]_whom he/it to=him/it he,will_give_it in/on=day his_guilt_of,his )

See how you translated the similar idiom in 6:3.

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom

(Some words not found in UHB: or from=all which/who swore on/upon/above=him/it to,falsehood and,he_will_repay DOM=him/it in,head_of,its and,its_of,fifth(s) add on/upon/above=him/it to,[the_one]_whom he/it to=him/it he,will_give_it in/on=day his_guilt_of,his )

The expression in its head is an emphatic idiom that means “totally” or “completely.” In this context, it connotes repaying the entire value of the monetary value of whatever the individual has stolen, extorted, or withheld from his fellow Israelite. If your language has a similar idiom, consider using it here. Alternate translation: [completely] or [totally]

Note 3 topic: translate-fraction

וַ⁠חֲמִשִׁתָ֖י⁠ו

(Some words not found in UHB: or from=all which/who swore on/upon/above=him/it to,falsehood and,he_will_repay DOM=him/it in,head_of,its and,its_of,fifth(s) add on/upon/above=him/it to,[the_one]_whom he/it to=him/it he,will_give_it in/on=day his_guilt_of,his )

The fifth is one part out of five equal parts.

(Some words not found in UHB: or from=all which/who swore on/upon/above=him/it to,falsehood and,he_will_repay DOM=him/it in,head_of,its and,its_of,fifth(s) add on/upon/above=him/it to,[the_one]_whom he/it to=him/it he,will_give_it in/on=day his_guilt_of,his )

Alternate translation: [To whomever it is owed]

Note 4 topic: writing-pronouns

יִתְּנֶ֖⁠נּוּ

(Some words not found in UHB: or from=all which/who swore on/upon/above=him/it to,falsehood and,he_will_repay DOM=him/it in,head_of,its and,its_of,fifth(s) add on/upon/above=him/it to,[the_one]_whom he/it to=him/it he,will_give_it in/on=day his_guilt_of,his )

The pronoun it refers to the full monetary value of what the individual owes plus the additional one-fifth that the law requires. Alternate translation: [he shall give the full monetary amount of what is owed plus the required extra one-fifth]

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / possession

בְּ⁠י֥וֹם אַשְׁמָתֽ⁠וֹ

(Some words not found in UHB: or from=all which/who swore on/upon/above=him/it to,falsehood and,he_will_repay DOM=him/it in,head_of,its and,its_of,fifth(s) add on/upon/above=him/it to,[the_one]_whom he/it to=him/it he,will_give_it in/on=day his_guilt_of,his )

Here, the expression on the day of his guilt uses the possessive form to describe either: (1) whichever day is characterized by the recognition of guilt, both in the sense of the internal feeling of having committed wrongdoing and in the legal sense of needing to provide restitution for that wrongdoing. Alternate translation: [whenever he realizes that he is guilty] or (2) the day on which this individual offers his guilt offering. Alternate translation: [on the day when he offers his guilt offering]

Note 6 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns

בְּ⁠י֥וֹם אַשְׁמָתֽ⁠וֹ

(Some words not found in UHB: or from=all which/who swore on/upon/above=him/it to,falsehood and,he_will_repay DOM=him/it in,head_of,its and,its_of,fifth(s) add on/upon/above=him/it to,[the_one]_whom he/it to=him/it he,will_give_it in/on=day his_guilt_of,his )

Here, the abstract noun guilt does not refer to the guilt offering itself, to which the same expression in 5:6 and elsewhere in the previous chapter referred. Rather, it refers to either: (1) both the internal sense of having committed wrongdoing and the legal state of needing to provide reparations for that wrongdoing, whether intentional or unintentional, in the same sense as the expression that you encountered in 6:4. Alternate translation: [on the day that he becomes guilty] or (2) the day of the individual’s guilt offering. Alternate translation: [on the day when he offers his guilt offering]
