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-newevent

וַ⁠יְהִ֞י

and=he/it_was

The phrase And it happened introduces a new event in the story. This is a common way in biblical Hebrew to signal the beginning of a new section. If your language has a natural way to mark the start of a new event, you could use it here. Alternate translation: [Then] or [After this]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / events

בַּ⁠שָּׁנָ֧ה הַ⁠שֵּׁנִ֛ית בַּ⁠חֹ֥דֶשׁ הַ⁠שֵּׁנִ֖י בְּ⁠עֶשְׂרִ֣ים בַּ⁠חֹ֑דֶשׁ

in,year the=second(fs) in,month the=second on_[day],twenty in,month

This event took place after the events narrated in Numbers 1–6, which took place after the events in Numbers 7–9. If it is helpful in your language, you might want to make it clear that the account that starts in this verse happened after the events in chapters 1–6. Alternate translation: [after the census, in the second year, in the second month, on 20 in the month]

Note 3 topic: translate-ordinal

בַּ⁠שָּׁנָ֧ה הַ⁠שֵּׁנִ֛ית בַּ⁠חֹ֥דֶשׁ הַ⁠שֵּׁנִ֖י

in,year the=second(fs) in,month the=second

If your language would not represent numbers in forms such as in the second year and in the second month, you could represent these numbers in forms that your language would use. Alternate translation: [in year two, in month two]

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

בַּ⁠שָּׁנָ֧ה הַ⁠שֵּׁנִ֛ית

in,year the=second(fs)

The implication is that this was two years after the Israelites had left Egypt. You could include this information if that would be helpful to your readers. Alternate translation: [in the second year after the Israelites left Egypt]

Note 5 topic: translate-hebrewmonths

בַּ⁠חֹ֥דֶשׁ הַ⁠שֵּׁנִ֖י

in,month the=second

The second month of the Hebrew calendar includes April and May on Western calendars. You could convert the Hebrew day and month into an approximate date on the calendar that your culture uses. However, the Jews used a lunar calendar, so if you use a solar calendar, the date will be different every year, and the translation will not be entirely accurate. So you may just want to give the number of the day and the name of the month on the Hebrew calendar and say in a footnote approximately what time of year that is on your calendar.

Note 6 topic: figures-of-speech / ellipsis

בְּ⁠עֶשְׂרִ֣ים

on_[day],twenty

The author is leaving out some of the words that in many languages a sentence would need in order to be complete. You can supply these words from the context if that would be clearer in your language. Alternate translation: [on day 20]

Note 7 topic: translate-ordinal

בְּ⁠עֶשְׂרִ֣ים

on_[day],twenty

If your language would not represent a number in a form such as on 20, you could represent this number in a form that your language would use. Alternate translation: [on the twentieth]

Note 8 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

נַעֲלָה֙ הֶֽ⁠עָנָ֔ן

lifted the,cloud

The expression was taken up is a passive verbal form. If your language would not use that form, you could express the idea in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. If you need to say who does the action, the context indicates that it is Yahweh. Alternate translation: [Yahweh took the cloud up]

Note 9 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

מִשְׁכַּ֥ן הָ⁠עֵדֻֽת

tabernacle_of of,the_testimony

The implication is that the tent housed the stone tablets on which Yahweh had written the Ten Commandments, which were called “the Testimony.” The ark containing these tablets was kept in the Most Holy Place in this tent. You could include this information if that would be helpful to your readers. See how you translated this phrase in [1:50](../01/50.md). Alternate translation: [the tent holding the ark containing the Ten Commandments]
