UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

The nations raged

(Some words not found in UHB: ʼElohīm in/on/at/with,midst,her not moved help,her ʼElohīm when,dawns morning )

Here, the word “raged” is the same word that the writer used in Psalms verse 3 to describe the waters of the sea. The writer speaks of the fear of the nations as if it was the violent movements of the sea during a strong storm. Alternate translation: “The nations are terrified”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

the kingdoms were shaken

(Some words not found in UHB: ʼElohīm in/on/at/with,midst,her not moved help,her ʼElohīm when,dawns morning )

Here, the word “shaken” is the same word that the writer used in Psalms verse 2 to describe the effect of an earthquake on the mountains. The writer speaks of the overthrow of kingdoms by armies as if an earthquake were to destroy them. If your language does not use the passive form in this way, you can state this in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. Alternate translation: “armies overthrew the kingdoms” (See also: figs-activepassive)

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

he lifted up his voice

(Some words not found in UHB: ʼElohīm in/on/at/with,midst,her not moved help,her ʼElohīm when,dawns morning )

“God lifted up his voice.” The writer speaks of the “voice” as an object that a person can pick up and raise into the air. This means that the voice becomes louder. Alternate translation: “God shouted”
