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

UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / quotations

אַל־תֹּאמַ֗ר כַּ⁠אֲשֶׁ֣ר עָֽשָׂה־לִ֭⁠י כֵּ֤ן אֶֽעֱשֶׂה־לּ֑⁠וֹ אָשִׁ֖יב לָ⁠אִ֣ישׁ כְּ⁠פָעֳלֽ⁠וֹ

not say just=as he/it_had_made to=me yes/correct/thus/so do for=him/it pay_~_back to_the,man for,what_~_havedone,he

If it would be more natural in your language, you could express this as an indirect quotation. Alternate translation: “Do not say that you will do to him just as he did to you, or that you will return to the man according to his deed”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / gendernotations

עָֽשָׂה & לּ֑⁠וֹ & לָ⁠אִ֣ישׁ כְּ⁠פָעֳלֽ⁠וֹ

he/it_had_made & for=him/it & to_the,man for,what_~_havedone,he

Although he, him, the man, and his are masculine, the writer is using these words in a generic sense that includes both men and women. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use phrases that make this clear. Alternate translation: “a person did … to that person … to that person according to that person’s deed”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

עָֽשָׂה & אֶֽעֱשֶׂה & כְּ⁠פָעֳלֽ⁠וֹ

he/it_had_made & do & for,what_~_havedone,he

The speaker implies that this deed was something bad or harmful to the person speaking. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state this explicitly. Alternate translation: “he did something bad … I will do something bad … according to his bad deed”
