UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / personification

thunderous voice

(Some words not found in UHB: poured_out waters clouds sound/voice gave_forth skies also/though arrows_of,your flashed_back_and_forth )

This is personification, referring to the thunder as the voice of God. Alternate translation: “voice, which was as loud as thunder” or “very loud voice”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / hyperbole

lightning lit up the world

(Some words not found in UHB: poured_out waters clouds sound/voice gave_forth skies also/though arrows_of,your flashed_back_and_forth )

This is an exaggeration to emphasize that the lightning lit up everything the writer could see. Alternate translation: “lightning lit up everything as far as you could see”
