UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns

May the favor of the Lord our God be ours

(Some words not found in UHB: and=let_it_be favour_of my=master God_of,our upon,us and,work_of our=both_hands establish, for,us and,work_of our=both_hands establish,it )

If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea behind the word favor, you could express the same idea with a verbal form such as “be kind.” Alternate translation: “May the Lord our God be kind to us”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / synecdoche

prosper the work of our hands

(Some words not found in UHB: and=let_it_be favour_of my=master God_of,our upon,us and,work_of our=both_hands establish, for,us and,work_of our=both_hands establish,it )

Here “hands” represents the whole person. Alternate translation: “cause us to be successful”
