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.

UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: writing-poetry

וּ⁠מָעֲלָ֥ה מַ֖עַל

and,it_will_act_unfaithfully breach_of_faith

See how you translated the similar expression using repeated words in [5:15](../05/15.md).

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom

וְ⁠כִחֵ֨שׁ בַּ⁠עֲמִית֜⁠וֹ

and,he_will_deny (Some words not found in UHB: creature that/for/because/then/when sins and,it_will_act_unfaithfully breach_of_faith against,Yahweh and,he_will_deny (in)_his,fellow_of,citizen (in)_a,deposit or (in)_deposited,property_of care or (in)_a,robbery or defrauded DOM citizen_of,his_fellow )

As the Introduction to this chapter discusses, in the context of [6:2–3](../06/02.md), the expression denies his fellow citizen is an idiom that refers to the actions whereby someone swears a socially-binding oath with a member of their family or clan and commits himself or herself to certain actions regarding the other person but afterward fails to behave in accordance with the stipulations of the oath. This could be done by stealing from the other individual, extorting them out of wages or any owed money, finding something that belongs to the other individual but failing to return it, or any other way of proving that the original oath was taken without intent to abide by it honestly. If the idiom here does not communicate this meaning in your language, consider using a more general expression. Alternate translation: [and he acts in such a way that he breaks an oath that he made with his fellow citizen]

Note 3 topic: translate-unknown

בְּ⁠פִקָּד֗וֹן

(Some words not found in UHB: creature that/for/because/then/when sins and,it_will_act_unfaithfully breach_of_faith against,Yahweh and,he_will_deny (in)_his,fellow_of,citizen (in)_a,deposit or (in)_deposited,property_of care or (in)_a,robbery or defrauded DOM citizen_of,his_fellow )

This deposit refers to either (1) a monetary down payment that served to guarantee the full payment of a larger amount. Alternate translation: [with a down payment on a larger owed sum] or (2) an item that was given from one individual to another for safekeeping. Alternate translation: [with an item given to him for safekeeping]

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom

אֽוֹ־בִ⁠תְשׂ֤וּמֶת יָד֙

or (in)_deposited,property_of care

The expression a pledge of a hand refers to a physical item that is given from one member of a community to another. This item would commit the individual who received it to carry out the stipulations of the oath. Alternate translation: [or with a physical item that served as a reminder of the terms of the oath made between them]

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns

א֣וֹ בְ⁠גָזֵ֔ל

or (in)_a,robbery

If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea behind the word robbery, you can express the same idea with a verbal form. Alternate translation: [or by robbing him]

א֖וֹ עָשַׁ֥ק אֶת־עֲמִיתֽ⁠וֹ

or (Some words not found in UHB: creature that/for/because/then/when sins and,it_will_act_unfaithfully breach_of_faith against,Yahweh and,he_will_deny (in)_his,fellow_of,citizen (in)_a,deposit or (in)_deposited,property_of care or (in)_a,robbery or defrauded DOM citizen_of,his_fellow )

Alternate translation: [or he refuses to pay his employees what he owes them, or he intentionally withholds money that he agreed to pay to his fellow citizen]
