4 | 1:1 | y78a | rc://*/ta/man/translate/figs-possession | מֵאֹ֥הֶל מוֹעֵ֖ד | 1 | The author of Leviticus is using the possessive to describe Yahweh's meeting with Moses (and, by extension, the whole people) within the physical location of the tent. If this is not clear in your language, you could use an adjective that better describes the locale of divine presence. Alternative translation: “from the tent where Yahweh met with Moses and lived among the Israelites” | |
5 | 1:1 | zbz1 | rc://*/ta/man/translate/writing-quotations | לֵאמֹֽר | 1 | The word translated saying introduces a direct quotation. In your translation, consider ways in which you might introduce this quotation naturally in your language. | |
6 | 1:1-2 | rivr | rc://*/ta/man/translate/figs-quotesinquotes | לֵאמֹֽר & דַּבֵּ֞ר אֶל־בְּנֵ֤י יִשְׂרָאֵל֙ וְאָמַרְתָּ֣ אֲלֵהֶ֔ם | 1 | If it would be helpful in your language, you could translate this so that there is not a quotation within a quotation. It may be helpful to begin a new sentence here. Alternate translation, with a period before: “He told Moses to speak to the sons of Israel and to say to them” | |
7 | 1:2 | l7kq | rc://*/ta/man/translate/figs-doublet | דַּבֵּ֞ר אֶל־בְּנֵ֤י יִשְׂרָאֵל֙ וְאָמַרְתָּ֣ אֲלֵהֶ֔ם | 1 | These two phrases mean basically the same thing. The repetition emphasizes that Moses is to deliver the following speech to the people of Israel. (The speech makes up the first seven chapters of the book.) If your language does not use repetition for emphasis, you could use a single phrase and convey the emphasis in another way. Alternate translation: “Make sure you say to the people of Israel” | |
8 | 1:2 | o3rs | rc://*/ta/man/translate/figs-metaphor | בְּנֵ֤י יִשְׂרָאֵל֙ | 1 | This expression speaks of the people of Israel in the time of Moses as if they were literally the sons of Israel. It means that they are the physical and spiritual descendants of Jacob, whose name God changed to Israel. If it would be clearer in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “the descendants of Israel” | |
9 | 1:2 | jqkz | rc://*/ta/man/translate/figs-gendernotations | בְּנֵ֤י יִשְׂרָאֵל֙ | 1 | Although the word translated sons is masculine and plural, it has a generic sense that applies to both men and women. In your translation, you may wish to use a term that is clearly inclusive of men and women. Alternate translation: “the people of Israel” | |
10 | 1:2 | fjhs | rc://*/ta/man/translate/figs-declarative | וְאָמַרְתָּ֣ | 1 | As the General Introduction to Leviticus discusses, here and throughout the book, the author of Leviticus uses a future form to give an instruction or command. If it would be helpful in your language, you could translate these verbs using a command or instruction form. Alternate translation: “and say” | |
11 | 1:2 | yiq7 | rc://*/ta/man/translate/figs-gendernotations | אָדָ֗ם כִּֽי־יַקְרִ֥יב מִכֶּ֛ם | 1 | Although the word translated A man is masculine, it has a generic sense that refers to any person who approaches the tent to make a sacrifice. Alternate translation: “When one of you presents” or “When someone presents” | |
12 | 1:2 | aps3 | rc://*/ta/man/translate/figs-123person | אָדָ֗ם & מִכֶּ֛ם & תַּקְרִ֖יבוּ אֶת־קָרְבַּנְכֶֽם׃ | 1 | As the General Introduction to Leviticus discusses, the book often speaks of the Israelites and to the Israelites in the third person, even though it is a direct address to them. Here and throughout the book, if it would be helpful in your language, you could either (1) use the second person in your translation. Alternate translation: “One of you Israelites ... you shall present your offering” or (2) use the third person in your translation. Alternate translation: “An Israelite ... he shall present his offering” | |
13 | 1:2 | gmsf | rc://*/ta/man/translate/figs-yousingular | מִכֶּ֛ם & תַּקְרִ֖יבוּ אֶת־קָרְבַּנְכֶֽם׃ | 1 | The words you and your here are plural. These words apply to the entire Israelite community. Use the plural form in your translation if your language marks that distinction. | |
14 | 1:2 | dlfh | rc://*/ta/man/translate/writing-poetry | יַקְרִ֥יב & קָרְבָּ֖ן | 1 | The word presents translates a verb that is related to the noun translated offering. The repetition of related words adds emphasis to the statement. If your language can repeat words for emphasis, it would be appropriate to use that construction here in your translation. | |
15 | 1:2 | kqu4 | rc://*/ta/man/translate/figs-genericnoun | הַבְּהֵמָ֗ה & הַבָּקָר֙ & הַצֹּ֔אן | 1 | The expressions the livestock, the cattle, and the flock do not refer to specific groups of animals. They describe any groups of animals that an Israelite might own. Express this in the way that would be most natural in your language. Alternate translation: “his livestock … his cattle … his flock” | |
16 | 1:2 | uwp3 | rc://*/ta/man/translate/translate-unknown | מִן־הַבְּהֵמָ֗ה | 1 | The word translated livestock refers generally to land animals as opposed to birds or fish. In the context of Leviticus, it refers specifically to domesticated bovines, sheep, goats, and all other animals used for commercial and agrarian purposes, including work and food. If your readers would not be familiar with these animals, you could use a general expression in your translation. Alternate translation: “from the animals he is raising” | |
17 | 1:2 | fp0a | rc://*/ta/man/translate/translate-unknown | מִן־הַבָּקָר֙ | 1 | The word translated cattle refers to a subgroup of the word translated livestock. It describes a group of bovines—whether cows, bulls, or oxen. If your readers would not be familiar with these animals, you could use a general expression in your translation. Alternate translation: “either from his bovines” | |
18 | 1:2 | zd59 | rc://*/ta/man/translate/translate-unknown | וּמִן־הַצֹּ֔אן | 1 | The word translated flock refers to a subgroup of the word translated livestock. It describes a group of sheep or goats. If your readers would not be familiar with these animals, you could use a general expression in your translation. Alternate translation: “or from his sheep or goats” | |
19 | 1:2 | a09b | תַּקְרִ֖יבוּ | 1 | Alternate translation: “you must present” | ||
20 | 1:3 | bgfy | rc://*/ta/man/translate/writing-poetry | קָרְבָּנוֹ֙ & יַקְרִיבֶ֑נּוּ & יַקְרִ֣יב | 1 | Here, a verb and its object come from the same root. The ULT translates with the noun offering and the verb present. Your language may have comparable terms that you can use in your own translation. | |
21 | 1:3 | dek9 | זָכָ֥ר תָּמִ֖ים יַקְרִיבֶ֑נּוּ | 1 | Alternate translation: “he shall present a perfect male” | ||
22 | 1:3 | tdgu | rc://*/ta/man/translate/figs-explicit | זָכָ֥ר תָּמִ֖ים | 1 | ||
23 | 1:3 | ds3f | rc://*/ta/man/grammar-connect-logic-goal | זָכָ֥ר תָּמִ֖ים יַקְרִיבֶ֑נּוּ אֶל־פֶּ֝תַח אֹ֤הֶל מוֹעֵד֙ יַקְרִ֣יב אֹת֔וֹ לִרְצֹנ֖וֹ לִפְנֵ֥י יְהוָֽה | 1 | The word translated for indicates the goal or purpose for offering a sacrifice in the manner prescribed here. If it would be more natural in your language, you could put the last of these phrases first, since the last phrase gives the reason for the actions that the first two phrases describe. Alternate translation: “in order for Yahweh to consider the offering acceptable, he shall present a perfect male at the entrance of the tent of meeting” | |
24 | 1:3 | l23i | rc://*/ta/man/translate/figs-explicit | לִרְצֹנ֖וֹ | 1 | The word translated its could refer to (1) the offering. Alternate translation: “for the acceptance of the animal” or (2) the worshiper. Alternate translation: “for the acceptance of the one offering the animal” | |
25 | 1:3 | wwof | rc://*/ta/man/translate/figs-metaphor | לִפְנֵ֥י יְהוָֽה | 1 | As the General Introduction to Leviticus discusses, in contexts such as this, the expression to the face of Yahweh means “where Yahweh can see” and, by extension, “from Yahweh’s perspective” or “in Yahweh’s judgment.” Alternate translation: “from Yahweh’s perspective” or “in Yahweh's judgment” or “before Yahweh” | |
26 | 1:3 | r66a | 1 | Alternate translation: “But the rest of the meat and bread” | |||
27 | 1:4 | n7j5 | rc://*/ta/man/translate/translate-symaction | וְסָמַ֣ךְ יָד֔וֹ עַ֖ל רֹ֣אשׁ הָעֹלָ֑ה | 1 | This is a symbolic action that identifies the person with the animal he is offering. The implication seems to be that the person is ritually placing his sins on the sacrificial animal so that God will forgive the sins when the animal is sacrificed. If it would be helpful to your readers, you could explain the significance of this action in a footnote or in the text of your translation. Alternate translation: “And he shall lay his hand on the head of the burnt offering. He should do this to ritually place his sins on the animal” | |
28 | 1:4 | el3u | rc://*/ta/man/translate/figs-activepassive | וְנִרְצָ֥ה | 1 | If your language does not use the passive form in this way, you could state this in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. Alternate translation: “And Yahweh will accept it” | |
29 | 1:4 | mygh | rc://*/ta/man/grammar-connect-logic-goal | לְכַפֵּ֥ר עָלָֽיו | 1 | The words in order to introduce the purpose of the animal's acceptance as an appropriate sacrifice. Use an expression in your language that makes it clear that what follows is the purpose. | |
30 | 1:4 | rvk3 | rc://*/ta/man/translate/figs-abstractnouns | לְכַפֵּ֥ר עָלָֽיו | 1 | For the metaphors potentially lying behind the idea of atonement, refer back to the General Introduction to Leviticus. If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea of atonement, you could express the same idea in another way. Alternate translation: “to restore him to a relationship with Yahweh” | |
31 | 1:5 | bs53 | rc://*/ta/man/translate/figs-idiom | אֶת־בֶּ֥ן הַבָּקָ֖ר | 1 | The expression son of describes a person or animal that shares the essential qualities of something. Here the phrase describes this animal as the son of the cattle because it is a male animal that shares the distinguishing qualities characteristic of the class of bovines. If it would be helpful to your readers, you could use an equivalent idiom from your language or state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “the bull” or “the bovine” | |
32 | 1:5 | fgym | rc://*/ta/man/translate/figs-metonymy | לִפְנֵ֣י יְהוָ֑ה | 1 | Here, face represents the presence of a person. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use an equivalent expression from your language or state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “in Yahweh's presence” or “within the sacred precincts of the tent of meeting, where Yahweh lives among the Israelites” | |
33 | 1:5 | sudx | rc://*/ta/man/translate/figs-metaphor | בְּנֵ֨י אַהֲרֹ֤ן | 1 | As the General Introduction to Leviticus discusses, at the time when Yahweh spoke to Moses from the tent of meeting, the priests literally were the sons of Aaron. But the instructions in the book also applied to future generations, when the term “sons” would be a way of referring to the priests as Aaron's “descendants” (with the exception of Leviticus chs. 8–10). Here and throughout the book, if it would be clearer in your language, in your translation you could generally use that term, which would apply to both the original priests and to their successors. | |
34 | 1:5 | qcc2 | rc://*/ta/man/translate/figs-explicit | וְ֠הִקְרִיבוּ בְּנֵ֨י אַהֲרֹ֤ן הַֽכֹּֽהֲנִים֙ אֶת־ הַדָּ֔ם | 1 | It is implied that the priests would catch the blood in a bowl as it drained out of the animal. Then they would bring the bowl with the blood in it and present it to Yahweh at the altar. If this would not be clear in your language, you could supply this information here and in later instances in the book. Alternative translation: “And after catching the blood in a bowl as it drains from the animal, the sons of Aaron, the priests, will present the blood to Yahweh” | |
35 | 1:5 | d5hh | rc://*/ta/man/translate/translate-unknown | וְזָרְק֨וּ אֶת־הַדָּ֤ם עַל־הַמִּזְבֵּ֨חַ֙ סָבִ֔יב אֲשֶׁר־פֶּ֖תַח אֹ֥הֶל מוֹעֵֽד | 1 | The act of splashing the blood on the sides of the altar is a ritual action. The blood of the animal, being its life (see Leviticus 17:11), was given by God to purify ritually and to remove sin. Here, the blood is splashed against the side of the altar to keep it free from sin. If this would not be clear to your readers, you could explain the significance of this action in the text or in a footnote here and in subsequent instances in the book. Alternate translation: “and they shall splash the blood all around on the holy altar that is at the entrance of the tent of meeting in order to keep the altar clean from sin” | |
36 | 1:6 | u7di | rc://*/ta/man/translate/writing-pronouns | וְהִפְשִׁ֖יט | 1 | The pronoun he refers to the person making the offering. If it would be helpful to your readers, you could make the subject explicit. You could also keep using a second-person pronoun if you have been doing that. Alternate translation: “And the one offering the sacrifice shall skin” | |
37 | 1:6 | cshr | rc://*/ta/man/translate/figs-explicit | וְנִתַּ֥ח אֹתָ֖הּ לִנְתָחֶֽיהָ | 1 | The author of Leviticus assumes his audience will know what portions of the animal constituted its pieces. These would have included, but perhaps not been limited to, the legs and entrails, as 1:9 suggests. If the phrase its pieces would not be clear in your context, consider listing what pieces these are. Alternate translation: “and he shall cut it into its appropriate portions, removing the legs and entrails” | |
38 | 1:6 | h71g | rc://*/ta/man/translate/writing-poetry | וְנִתַּ֥ח אֹתָ֖הּ לִנְתָחֶֽיהָ׃ | 1 | This expression is an emphatic construction that uses a verb and its object that come from the same root. The word cut translates a verb that comes from the same root as the noun pieces. You may be able to use the same construction in your language to express the meaning here. Alternatively, your language may have another way of showing the emphasis. | |
39 | 1:7 | tm1b | rc://*/ta/man/translate/figs-idiom | וְ֠נָתְנוּ בְּנֵ֨י אַהֲרֹ֧ן הַכֹּהֵ֛ן אֵ֖שׁ עַל־הַמִּזְבֵּ֑חַ | 1 | The expression to give fire on the altar means “to put a fire on top of the altar.” It may mean that the priests were to place hot coals on the altar and perhaps kindling, on top of which they would place the wood. If the phrase give fire does not have that meaning in your language, you could use an expression in your language that does have that meaning or state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “And the sons of Aaron the priest will light a fire on the altar” | |
40 | 1:7 | o3og | rc://*/ta/man/translate/figs-metonymy | אֵ֖שׁ & הָאֵֽשׁ׃ | 1 | Here, the word fire represents the coals that produce fire. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use an equivalent expression from your language or state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “burning coals ... those burning coals” or “live coals ... those live coals” | |
41 | 1:8 | egek | rc://*/ta/man/translate/figs-explicit | וְאֶת־הַפָּ֑דֶר | 1 | The term fat refers to suet, that is, the hard, lumpy fat that surrounds the kidneys and liver of sheep, goats, and bovines. If your language has a word for this portion of fatty tissue, consider using it here. | |
42 | 1:9 | y5xf | rc://*/ta/man/translate/figs-explicitinfo | וְקִרְבּ֥וֹ וּכְרָעָ֖יו יִרְחַ֣ץ בַּמָּ֑יִם | 1 | It might seem that the expression and he shall wash its innards and its legs with water contains extra information that would be unnatural to express in your language. If so, you could use an equivalent expression. Alternate translation: “And he shall wash its innards and its legs” | |
43 | 1:9 | b3s6 | rc://*/ta/man/translate/writing-pronouns | יִרְחַ֣ץ | 1 | The pronoun he could refer either to the worshiper or to the priest. But given that every other reference to the priest has been explicit, it is likely that it refers to the worshiper. If it would be helpful in your language, you could make this explicit or continue using the same second-person pronoun used thus far. Alternate translation: “the one offering the sacrifice shall wash” | |
44 | 1:9 | f91i | rc://*/ta/man/translate/writing-pronouns | יִרְחַ֣ץ | 1 | The implication seems to be that the worshiper must wash the innards and legs before the priest arranges them on the wood, as 1:8 describes. You can indicate this in your translation if that would be helpful to your readers. Alternate translation: “before the priest arranges the pieces, the one offering the sacrifice shall wash” | |
45 | 1:9 | tnez | rc://*/ta/man/translate/translate-unknown | וְהִקְטִ֨יר הַכֹּהֵ֤ן אֶת־הַכֹּל֙ הַמִּזְבֵּ֔חָה | 1 | The act of burning the offering in such a way that it rises as smoke allows for the sacrifice to go up to Yahweh in heaven, where he would then smell the smoke and be pleased. If it would be helpful to your readers, you could explain the significance of this action. Alternate translation: “And the priest shall cause everything on the altar to become smoke and ascend toward God in heaven” | |
46 | 1:10 | e4nb | rc://*/ta/man/translate/figs-genericnoun | מִן־הַצֹּ֨אן & מִן־הַכְּשָׂבִ֛ים א֥וֹ מִן־הָעִזִּ֖ים | 1 | The expressions, the flock, the lambs, and the goats, do not refer to specific groups of animals. They describe any groups of animals that an Israelite might own. Express this in the way that would be most natural in your language. Alternate translation: “from his flock, whether from his sheep or from his goats” | |
47 | 1:10 | xwnf | rc://*/ta/man/translate/grammar-collectivenouns | זָכָ֥ר תָּמִ֖ים | 1 | See how you translated the expression a perfect male in 1:3. Alternate translation: “an unblemished male” or “a male without blemish” | |
48 | 1:11 | k2uc | rc://*/ta/man/translate/figs-metonymy | לִפְנֵ֣י יְהוָ֑ה | 1 | See how you translated the expression to the face of Yahweh in 1:5. Alternate translation: “in the presence of Yahweh” or “within the sacred precincts of the tent of meeting where Yahweh lives among the Israelites” | |
49 | 1:11 | uqy1 | rc://*/ta/man/translate/translate-unknown | וְזָרְק֡וּ בְּנֵי֩ אַהֲרֹ֨ן הַכֹּהֲנִ֧ים אֶת־דָּמ֛וֹ עַל־הַמִּזְבֵּ֖חַ סָבִֽיב׃ | 1 | See how you handled the symbolic action involving the blood in 1:5. | |
50 | 1:12 | q6a3 | rc://*/ta/man/translate/writing-pronouns | וְנִתַּ֤ח אֹתוֹ֙ | 1 | The pronoun he refers to the person offering the sacrifice. Alternate translation: “And the one offering the sacrifice shall cut it” | |
51 | 1:12 | zxh1 | rc://*/ta/man/translate/writing-poetry | וְנִתַּ֤ח אֹתוֹ֙ לִנְתָחָ֔יו | 1 | See how you translated the similar expression in 1:6. | |
52 | 1:12 | cmv5 | rc://*/ta/man/translate/figs-metonymy | עַל־הָֽעֵצִים֙ אֲשֶׁ֣ר עַל־הָאֵ֔שׁ אֲשֶׁ֖ר עַל־הַמִּזְבֵּֽחַ׃ | 1 | See how you translated the word fire in 1:7. | |
53 | 1:13 | bky3 | rc://*/ta/man/translate/figs-explicitinfo | יִרְחַ֣ץ בַּמָּ֑יִם | 1 | See how you translated the expression wash with water in 1:9. Alternate translation: “he shall wash thoroughly” | |
54 | 1:13 | cztr | rc://*/ta/man/translate/figs-explicit | וְהַקֶּ֥רֶב וְהַכְּרָעַ֖יִם יִרְחַ֣ץ בַּמָּ֑יִם | 1 | The implication seems to be that the worshiper must wash the innards and legs before the priest arranges them on the altar, as 1:12 describes. You can indicate this in your translation if that would be helpful to your readers. Alternate translation: “Before the priest arranges the pieces, the one offering the sacrifice shall wash the innards and legs with water” | |
55 | 1:13 | mf7x | rc://*/ta/man/translate/translate-unknown | וְהִקְטִ֣יר הַמִּזְבֵּ֔חָה | 1 | The act of burning the offering in such a way that it rises as smoke depicts the sacrifice as going up to Yahweh in heaven, where he would then smell the smoke and be pleased. If it would be helpful to your readers, you could explain the significance of this action. Alternate translation: “and he shall cause everything to become smoke on the altar and ascend toward God in heaven” | |
56 | 1:13 | hpef | rc://*/ta/man/translate/figs-pronouns | וְהִקְטִ֣יר הַמִּזְבֵּ֔חָה | 1 | The pronoun he refers to the priest. If it would be helpful in your language, you could make this explicit. Alternate translation: “and that same priest shall cause them to become smoke on the altar” | |
57 | 1:14 | kfag | rc://*/ta/man/translate/figs-genericnoun | מִן־הָע֛וֹף & מִן־הַתֹּרִ֗ים א֛וֹ מִן־בְּנֵ֥י הַיּוֹנָ֖ה | 1 | The expressions from the birds, from the turtledoves, and from the sons of the pigeon do not refer to specific birds, that is, to a specific group of turtledoves or pigeons. Rather, these expressions describe any birds (that is, any turtledoves or pigeons) that an Israelite might own or be able to purchase for sacrifice. Express this in the way that would be most natural in your language. Alternate translation: “from his birds … from his turtledoves or from his pigeons” | |
58 | 1:14 | c42w | rc://*/ta/man/translate/figs-idiom | מִן־בְּנֵ֥י הַיּוֹנָ֖ה | 1 | The expression sons of describes a person or animal that shares the essential qualities of something. The author of Leviticus uses this phrase to describe a group of birds as the sons of the pigeon since they were birds that shared the essential qualities of that class of birds. If it would be helpful, you could use an equivalent idiom from your language or state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “from the pigeons” | |
59 | 1:15 | sggt | rc://*/ta/man/translate/translate-unknown | וְהִקְטִ֖יר הַמִּזְבֵּ֑חָה | 1 | The act of burning the offering in a way that causes smoke to rise depicts the sacrifice as going to God in heaven, where he would smell the smoke and be pleased. If it would be helpful to your readers, you could explain the significance of this action. Alternate translation: “and he shall cause it to become smoke on the altar and ascend toward God in heaven” | |
60 | 1:15 | kk8b | rc://*/ta/man/translate/writing-pronouns | וּמָלַק֙ אֶת־רֹאשׁ֔וֹ | 1 | The pronoun he is ambiguous and could refer to either the worshiper or the priest. However, because it is explicitly the priest who brings the bird to the altar before it is sacrificed and prepared for burning, it is likely that throughout this verse and the next one, the pronoun he refers to the priest. If it would be helpful in your language, you could make this explicit. Alternate translation: “and that same priest shall twist off its head” | |
61 | 1:15 | v06b | rc://*/ta/man/translate/writing-pronouns | וְהִקְטִ֖יר הַמִּזְבֵּ֑חָה | 1 | As the previous note explains, the pronoun he refers to the priest. If this is unclear in your language, consider making the referent explicit. Alternate translation: “and that same priest shall cause everything to become smoke on the altar” | |
62 | 1:15 | etrw | rc://*/ta/man/translate/figs-explicit | וְהִקְטִ֖יר הַמִּזְבֵּ֑חָה | 1 | The object that is to be burned on the altar is not specified. However, because the blood has not yet been removed from the bird and the burning of blood is expressly forbidden in Leviticus, it seems likely that the supplied pronoun it here refers to the head of the bird. If it would be helpful in your language, consider making this explicit. Alternate translation: “and he shall cause the head that he removed to become smoke on the altar” | |
63 | 1:15 | sur7 | rc://*/ta/man/translate/figs-activepassive | וְנִמְצָ֣ה דָמ֔וֹ | 1 | If your language does not use the passive form in this way, you could state this in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. Alternate translation: “Then the priest shall drain its blood” | |
64 | 1:16 | x2cz | rc://*/ta/man/translate/writing-pronouns | וְהֵסִ֥יר | 1 | The pronoun he refers to the priest. If it would be helpful in your language, you could make this explicit. Alternate translation: “And the priest shall remove” | |
65 | 1:16 | zqs8 | rc://*/ta/man/translate/translate-unknown | אֶת־ מֻרְאָת֖וֹ | 1 | A craw is a pouch in a bird’s throat where pre-digested food is stored. If your language has its own term for this anatomical feature, consider using that word here. If not, you could use a general expression. Alternate translation: “the bird’s throat pouch” | |
66 | 1:16 | x63v | rc://*/ta/man/translate/writing-pronouns | וְהִשְׁלִ֨יךְ אֹתָ֜הּ | 1 | The word it refers to the craw, but since the worshiper is supposed to throw it beside the altar along with the feathers, it may be more natural in your language to use the plural pronoun “them,” as modeled by the UST. | |
67 | 1:16 | of8a | rc://*/ta/man/translate/writing-pronouns | וְהִשְׁלִ֨יךְ אֹתָ֜הּ | 1 | The pronoun he is ambiguous, but appears to continue the action taken by the priest. If it would be helpful in your language, you could make this explicit. Alternate translation: “and the priest shall cast it” | |
68 | 1:16 | zb2d | rc://*/ta/man/translate/translate-unknown | מְק֖וֹם הַדָּֽשֶׁן | 1 | The place of the fatty ashes is the specified spot where the priest would dump the ashes that had accumulated from previous sacrifices, along with the rendered fat from the altar. If your language has a technical term for such a place, consider using it here. If not, you could use a general expression. Alternate translation: “the spot where the ashes and the burnt fat are dumped” or “the location where the ashes and the burnt fat are dumped” | |
69 | 1:17 | zxzv | rc://*/ta/man/translate/figs-pronouns | וְשִׁסַּ֨ע אֹת֣וֹ | 1 | Given the action taken by the priest in 1:15-16, the pronoun he likely refers to the priest. If it would be helpful in your language, you could make this explicit. Alternate translation: “And the priest shall tear it open” | |
70 | 1:17 | ua00 | rc://*/ta/man/translate/figs-pronouns | לֹ֣א יַבְדִּיל֒ | 1 | The pronoun he is ambiguous but likely refers to the priest. If it would be helpful in your language, you could make this explicit. Alternate translation: “the priest shall not divide it” | |
71 | 1:17 | bxu3 | rc://*/ta/man/translate/translate-unknown | וְהִקְטִ֨יר אֹת֤וֹ הַכֹּהֵן֙ הַמִּזְבֵּ֔חָה עַל־הָעֵצִ֖ים אֲשֶׁ֣ר עַל־הָאֵ֑שׁ | 1 | See how you translated the similar expression in 1:9. Alternate translation: “And the priest shall cause it to become smoke on the altar, on the wood that is on the fire, and ascend towards God in heaven” | |

Here and throughout the book, if it would be helpful in your language, you could use the second person in your translation. | |
75 | 2:1 | oa9h | rc://*/ta/man/translate/figs-explicit | וְנֶ֗פֶשׁ כִּֽי־תַקְרִ֞יב | 1 | The word translated as a person is feminine, but it has a generic sense that refers to any person who approaches the tent to make a sacrifice.

Alternate translation: “an offering of dried wheat or barley produce” | |
77 | 2:1 | te9y | rc://*/ta/man/translate/figs-declarative | סֹ֖לֶת יִהְיֶ֣ה קָרְבָּנ֑וֹ וְיָצַ֤ק עָלֶ֨יהָ֙ שֶׁ֔מֶן וְנָתַ֥ן עָלֶ֖יהָ לְבֹנָֽה׃ | 1 | As the General Introduction discusses, Leviticus often uses future statements to give instructions or commands. If it would be helpful in your language, here and throughout the book you could translate these future statements using command or instruction forms. Alternate translation: “his offering should be flour. And he should pour oil on it, and he should put incense on it” | |
78 | 2:1 | tf2u | rc://*/ta/man/translate/translate-unknown | סֹ֖לֶת | 1 | As the General Notes to this chapter discuss, the term translated flour refers to the food product made from grinding roasted and dried grains of wheat. Here, flour could mean: (1) the finely ground grain that falls through a sieve when sifted. Alternate translation: “fine wheat flour” or (2) the large lumps of crushed grain that remain on top of a sieve when sifted. Alternate translation: “wheat semolina” | |
79 | 2:1 | hdh9 | rc://*/ta/man/translate/translate-unknown | שֶׁ֔מֶן | 1 | As the General Notes to this chapter discuss, oil here refers to the agricultural product made from pressing ripe olives. If your language has a specific word for this term, consider using it here. | |
80 | 2:1 | v7wo | rc://*/ta/man/translate/figs-idiom | וְנָתַ֥ן עָלֶ֖יהָ לְבֹנָֽה׃ | 1 | The expression he shall give incense to it is an idiom that means to place or put incense on top of the grain offering. If your language has a similar idiom, consider using it here. If not, consider using a generic expression. Alternate translation: “and he shall put incense on it” | |
81 | 2:1 | x1p5 | rc://*/ta/man/translate/translate-unknown | לְבֹנָֽה | 1 | As the General Notes to this chapter discuss, the word incense refers to an expensive, fragrant gum resin tapped from specific trees. It would be routinely burned in ritual settings, such as grain offerings, for its fragrance. If your language has a word for this kind of religious item, consider using it here. Alternate translation: “a lump of frankincense” | |
82 | 2:2 | b2x5 | rc://*/ta/man/translate/writing-pronouns | וֶֽהֱבִיאָ֗הּ | 1 | The pronoun it refers to the grain offering, that is, the mixture of oil and wheat flour with the lump of incense, that 2:1 describes. If it would be helpful in your language, consider making the referent explicit. Alternate translation: “And he shall bring the mixture of flour, oil, and incense” | |
83 | 2:2 | fxgx | rc://*/ta/man/translate/figs-metaphor | בְּנֵ֣י אַהֲרֹן֮ | 1 | See how you translated the same expression in 1:5. Alternate translation: “the descendants of Aaron” | |

The word grab translates a verb that is related to the noun translated handful. The use of related words adds clarity to the statement. If your language can use related words for clarity and your language has comparable terms that you can use in your own translation, it would be appropriate to use that construction here. | |
85 | 2:2 | ufqr | rc://*/ta/man/translate/writing-pronouns | וְקָמַ֨ץ | 1 | The pronoun he is ambiguous in the context and could refer either to the priest or the worshiper. However, based on the description in 2:9, it is likely that he refers to the priest. If it would be helpful in your language, you could make this explicit. Alternate translation: “And the priest shall grab” | |

89 | 2:3 | uf6q | rc://*/ta/man/translate/figs-possession | קֹ֥דֶשׁ קָֽדָשִׁ֖ים | 1 | Here, the phrase a holy thing of holy things uses the possessive form to describe an offering that should be considered even more holy than those offerings that are also called holy; it is set apart for the special use of the priests. If this form would not express the idea of unique holiness in your language, consider a more generic way to express this idea. Alternate translation: “a most holy offering” or “an exceptionally holy offering” | |
90 | 2:3 | dtv0 | rc://*/ta/man/translate/figs-possession | מֵאִשֵּׁ֥י יְהוָֽה | 1 | In this possessive form, Yahweh is the object rather than the subject of gifts. That is, this does not mean gifts that Yahweh gives, it means gifts that are given to Yahweh. Alternative translation: “from the gifts that people offer to Yahweh” | |
91 | 2:4 | ggpx | rc://*/ta/man/translate/writing-poetry | וְכִ֥י תַקְרִ֛ב קָרְבַּ֥ן מִנְחָ֖ה | 1 | See how you translated the similar expression in 1:2 and 2:1. | |
92 | 2:4 | q954 | rc://*/ta/man/translate/figs-123person | תַקְרִ֛ב | 1 | As the General Notes to this chapter discuss, to this point the author of Leviticus has been using third-person singular pronouns. In this verse, the author of Leviticus starts using second-person singular pronouns. If you have been using the third-person pronouns and the switch to the second-person pronouns would not be natural in your language, you could continue to use the third-person pronouns in your translation. | |
93 | 2:4 | q6ll | rc://*/ta/man/translate/figs-activepassive | מַאֲפֵ֣ה תַנּ֑וּר | 1 | The term baked item may seem like a passive verbal form that your language would not use. If so, you could express the idea in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. Alternate translation: “an item that you baked in the oven” or, in the third person: “an item that a person baked in the oven” | |
94 | 2:4 | i7vg | rc://*/ta/man/translate/translate-unknown | מַאֲפֵ֣ה תַנּ֑וּר | 1 | In the world of ancient Israel, an oven was a cylindrical object likely made of clay or rock. A wood fire was lit under or at the bottom portion of the oven, and the resulting heat would bake the dough inside. If your readers would not be familiar with what an oven is, you could use the name of a comparable object in your culture or you could use a general expression. | |

If your language would not use a possessive form in this way, you could express the same meaning in another way. Alternative translation: “flour that you have mixed with oil and shaped into unleavened loaves” or, in the third person, “flour that he mixed with oil and shaped into unleavened loaves” | |
97 | 2:4 | nj1d | rc://*/ta/man/translate/translate-unknown | וּרְקִיקֵ֥י מַצּ֖וֹת | 1 | This wafer was a thin, cracker-like cake made from wheat flour. If your language has a word for a breaded loaf of this kind, consider using it here. | |

You could supply these words from the context if that would be helpful in your language. Alternate translation: “And if your offering is a grain offering that you have prepared on a griddle” or, in the third person, “And if his offering is a grain offering that he has prepared on a griddle” | |
99 | 2:5 | qg9n | rc://*/ta/man/translate/translate-unknown | הַֽמַּחֲבַ֖ת | 1 | This griddle was a thick but shallow plate made of either clay or metal that was placed over a fire. The dough was placed on the shallow plate; the heat from the fire would cook or lightly fry or toast the dough on top of the plate. If your readers would not be familiar with what a griddle is, in your translation, you could use the name of a comparable object in your culture, or you could use a general expression. | |

101 | 2:6 | jmbo | rc://*/ta/man/translate/writing-poetry | פָּת֤וֹת אֹתָהּ֙ פִּתִּ֔ים | 1 | Here, a verb and its object come from the same root. The word piece translates a verb that comes from the same root as the noun pieces. The use of related words adds clarity and emphasis to the statement. If your language can repeat words for emphasis and your language has comparable terms that you can use in your own translation, it would be appropriate to use that construction here. | |
102 | 2:6 | bq8a | rc://*/ta/man/translate/writing-pronouns | פָּת֤וֹת אֹתָהּ֙ פִּתִּ֔ים | 1 | The pronoun it refers to the grain offering, whether baked in an oven (see 2:4) or cooked on a griddle (see 2:5). It may be helpful to clarify this for your readers. Alternate translation: “Place either kind of grain offering into pieces” | |
103 | 2:7 | b7fj | rc://*/ta/man/translate/figs-ellipsis | וְאִם־ מִנְחַ֥ת מַרְחֶ֖שֶׁת קָרְבָּנֶ֑ךָ | 1 | The phrase a grain offering of a pan leaves out some of the words that in many languages a sentence would need in order to be complete.

Alternate translation: “And if your offering is a grain offering that you have prepared in a pan” or, in the third person, “And if his offering is a grain offering that he has prepared in a pan” | |
104 | 2:7 | l1pm | rc://*/ta/man/translate/translate-unknown | מַרְחֶ֖שֶׁת | 1 | The word pan refers to a plate of metal or clay with rounded edges, possibly with a lid. This plate was deeper than the griddle described in 2:5, and, as a result, the dough was placed into the pan and cooked over a hot fire in the oil, resulting in something like deep-frying. If your readers would not be familiar with what a pan is, in your translation you could use the name of a comparable object in your culture, or you could use a general expression. | |

Because of the altar's proximity to the Holy of Holies where Yahweh lived among the Israelites, bringing the offering to the altar was considered bringing it directly to Yahweh himself. If it would be helpful in your language, consider making this explicit. Alternate translation: “And you shall bring the grain offering that is made from these things to the altar that is inside the tent of meeting, where Yahweh lives among the Israelites” or, in the third person, “And he shall bring the grain offering that is made from these things to the altar that is inside the tent of meeting, where Yahweh lives among the Israelites” | |

108 | 2:8 | bcuy | rc://*/ta/man/translate/figs-pronouns | מֵאֵ֖לֶּה | 1 | The phrase from these could mean: (1) the ingredients described in 2:4-7. Alternate translation: “from these ingredients” or (2) the methods described in 2:4-7. Alternate translation: “in these ways” | |
109 | 2:8 | j9l1 | rc://*/ta/man/translate/figs-123person | וְהִקְרִיבָהּ֙ | 1 | As the General Notes to this chapter discuss, at this point Leviticus switches from using second-person singular pronouns to using a third-person singular pronoun.

Yahweh is speaking about everyone who will offer grain offerings at the altar located at the entrance to the tent of meeting. If you have been using second-person singular forms in your translation and the switch to the plural form would not be natural in your language, you could continue to use singular forms here. Alternatively, if you have been using third-person forms, you could continue to do so throughout this chapter. | |
115 | 2:11 | ldsh | rc://*/ta/man/translate/translate-unknown | חָמֵ֑ץ & שְׂאֹר֙ | 1 | As the General Notes to this chapter discuss, the word leaven refers to a combination of flour and water (and sometimes salt or oil) that contains a live leaven culture as its raising agent in the form of wild, natural yeast. If your readers would not be familiar with leaven or leaven culture, in your translation you could use the names of comparable substances in your culture, or you could use general expressions.

117 | 2:11 | dwkz | rc://*/ta/man/translate/figs-pronouns | מִמֶּ֛נּוּ אִשֶּׁ֖ה לַֽיהוָֽה | 1 | The pronoun it refers to a grain offering that is designated to be burned on the offering as a sacrifice to Yahweh and, thus, will be considered a gift to Yahweh.

Alternate translation: “from such a grain offering that you present as a gift to Yahweh” or, in the third person, “from such a grain offering that people present as a gift to Yahweh” | |

120 | 2:12 | ko94 | rc://*/ta/man/translate/translate-unknown | קָרְבַּ֥ן רֵאשִׁ֛ית | 1 | The expression offering of first things refers to a grain offering that consists of the best produce of the first harvest of a particular crop. If your language and culture have a word for this concept, consider using it here, or consider using a general term. | |

If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “but the priests shall not burn them on the altar in a way that causes them to become smoke and go up to Yahweh in heaven as a pleasant smell” | |
122 | 2:13 | ekv0 | rc://*/ta/man/translate/writing-poetry | בַּמֶּ֣לַח תִּמְלָח֒ | 1 | Here, a verb and its object come from the same root. The phrase you shall salt translates a verb that is related to the noun translated salt. The repetition of related words adds emphasis to the statement. If your language can repeat words for emphasis and your language has comparable terms that you can use in your own translation, it would be appropriate to use that construction here in your translation. | |
123 | 2:13 | gjig | rc://*/ta/man/translate/figs-yousingular | תִּמְלָח֒ | 1 | As the General Notes to this chapter discuss, Leviticus uses second-person singular forms in this verse and for the rest of the chapter. If you have been using second-person plural forms in your translation and switching to singular forms would not be natural in your language, you could continue to use plural forms in your translation. Alternatively, if you have been using third-person forms throughout, you could consider using these forms in your translation. | |
124 | 2:13 | hl5q | rc://*/ta/man/translate/figs-explicit | מֶ֚לַח בְּרִ֣ית אֱלֹהֶ֔יךָ | 1 | When Leviticus speaks of the salt of the covenant of your God, given the parallel expression covenant of salt in Numbers 18:19, the implication seems to be that the use of salt on grain offerings should remind the Israelites of Yahweh's covenant, likely because of salt’s association with preservation and, by extension, permanence. You can indicate this in your translation if that would be helpful to your readers. Alternate translation: “the salt that preserves food and so should remind you of the binding and permanent nature of God’s covenant with you” | |

If your readers would not be familiar with these animals, you could use a general expression in your translation. Alternate translation: “if he is presenting from his bovines, whether male or female” | |
138 | 3:1 | cxo9 | rc://*/ta/man/translate/figs-genericnoun | מִן־הַבָּקָר֙ | 1 | The phrase from the cattle does not refer to a specific group of animals.

The blood, being the life of the animal (see 17:11), was given by God to purify ritually and to remove sin. Here, the blood is splashed on the sides of the altar to keep it free from sin. If this would not be clear to your readers, you could explain the significance of this action in the text or in a footnote here and in subsequent instances in the book. If your language has a specific word for applying liquids in a religious context, consider using that word here.

As such, Leviticus 4:1–5:13 should be taken as a discrete unit, continuing on from Leviticus 1–3. This chapter gives instructions on how to offer a sacrifice for unintentional sins, called a purification offering because of its ability to purify the sacred space and sacred objects that are dedicated to Yahweh from the impurities generated by unintentional sin. The structure of the chapter offers can be mapped out as follows:
The chapter addresses four hypothetical situations where this kind of sacrifice is needed:
As in Leviticus 1, the instructions offer a detailed outline of the procedure for the sacrifice. The instructed steps include:

192 | 4:2 | gdkg | rc://*/ta/man/translate/figs-metaphor | בְּנֵ֣י יִשְׂרָאֵ֘ל | 1 | This expression speaks of the people of Israel in the time of Moses as if they were literally the sons of Israel. It means that they are the physical and spiritual descendants of Jacob, whose name God changed to Israel. If it would be clearer in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “the descendants of Israel” | |
193 | 4:2 | skxw | rc://*/ta/man/translate/figs-gendernotations | בְּנֵ֣י יִשְׂרָאֵ֘ל | 1 | Although the word translated sons is masculine and plural, it has a generic sense that applies to both men and women.

As the General Introduction to this chapter suggests, the people of Israel are here referred to by using a generic feminine noun, which intentionally balances the use of the generic masculine noun in 1:2. If your language has a generic word for an individual that is grammatically feminine, consider using it here, or use a generic noun. Alternate translation: “When any person offers” or “When someone offers” | |

Alternate translation: “when he sins by mistake from all the commands of Yahweh that say what you should not do” or (2) the act of sinning against God by violating any of the commands of Yahweh.

Alternate translation: “when he sins by mistake, unintentionally not doing something that the commands of Yahweh say you should do” or (2) doing wrong against God by mistakenly doing something that the commands of Yahweh expressly forbid.

If it would be helpful in your language, consider making this explicit. Alternate explanation: “if the anointed priest sins in such a way that it causes the people to become guilty” | |
200 | 4:3 | jsnr | rc://*/ta/man/translate/translate-unknown | הַכֹּהֵ֧ן הַמָּשִׁ֛יחַ | 1 | The anointed priest refers to the high priest, or the member of the priest who has been anointed to lead the priesthood.

201 | 4:3 | g1z4 | rc://*/ta/man/translate/figs-abstractnouns | לְאַשְׁמַ֣ת הָעָ֑ם | 1 | The abstract noun guilt refers both to the emotional experience of feeling guilty and to the legal status of having done wrong and needing to offer restitution for the wrongdoing. If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea of guilt, you can express the same idea with an adjective. Alternate translation: “so as to cause the people to be guilty” | |

The phrase he sinned translates a verb that is related to the noun translated sin. The repetition of related words adds emphasis to the statement. If your language can repeat words for emphasis and your language has comparable terms that you can use in your own translation, it would be appropriate to use that construction here in your translation. | |

Then he would bring the bowl with the blood in it and present it to Yahweh at the altar, before applying it to the altar in the manner that 4:6–7 describes. If this would not be clear in your language, you could supply this information, here and in later instances in the book.

Alternate translation: “and he shall sprinkle some of the blood seven times toward the Holy of Holies, where Yahweh lives among the Israelites” | |
217 | 4:6 | uk96 | rc://*/ta/man/translate/translate-unknown | וְהִזָּ֨ה מִן־הַדָּ֜ם שֶׁ֤בַע פְּעָמִים֙ | 1 | Just as the blood is splashed against the altar in 1:5 and elsewhere, here, in a similar ritual action, the high priest sprinkles the blood on the altar and the curtain with his finger. The blood, being the life of the animal (see 17:11), was given by God to purify and remove the defiling impurities caused by the high priests’ unintentional sin. If this would not be clear to your readers, you could explain the significance of this action in the text or in a footnote here and in subsequent instances in the book. If your language has a word for sprinkling liquids in a religious context, consider using it here. Alternate translation: “and he shall sprinkle some of the blood seven times in order to clean the sacred place from the defiling impurities of sin” | |

219 | 4:6 | htr0 | rc://*/ta/man/translate/translate-unknown | אֶת־פְּנֵ֖י פָּרֹ֥כֶת הַקֹּֽדֶשׁ׃ | 1 | The curtain of the holy place was a thick cloth of blue, purple, and scarlet linen that hung between the holy place of the altar and the Holy of Holies, concealing the Holy of Holies from view, as described in Exodus 26:31–35. If it would be helpful, consider making this explicit. Alternate translation: “the front of the sacred screen that separates the Holy of Holies from the rest of the tent” | |

By daubing the blood on the extremities of the altar, the priest is ritually removing from the sacred altar the impurities caused by the unintentional sin. If this would not be clear to your readers, you could explain the significance of this action in the text or in a footnote here and in subsequent instances in the book. Alternate translation: “And the priest should put some of the blood on the horns of the altar of incense of the spices in order to purify the altar from the defiling impurities caused by the priest’s unintentional sin” | |

223 | 4:7 | n7r6 | rc://*/ta/man/translate/translate-unknown | מִזְבַּ֨ח קְטֹ֤רֶת הַסַּמִּים֙ | 1 | The altar of incense of the spices refers to the place where priests burned fragrance incense twice a day, located directly in front of the curtain which separated the Holy of Holies from the rest of the tent of meeting. It is described in detail in Exodus 30:1–10. Alternate translation: “the altar of the fragrant incenses” | |
224 | 4:7 | hgoz | rc://*/ta/man/translate/figs-metonymy | לִפְנֵ֣י יְהוָ֔ה | 1 | Because this verse specifies that the incense altar is located inside the tent of meeting, here the expression to the face of Yahweh means directly in front of the Holy of Holies, the location where Yahweh was enthroned above the cherubim on the ark of the covenant.

The implication of this verse is that if the individual who hears the curse against the perpetrator of the crime fails to testify against that individual in the context of the judicial system, then he must carry his iniquity (for this phrase, see the next note).

In ancient Israel, this impurity was seen to pollute the holy space where Yahweh lived among the Israelites and could desecrate the sacred items that were consecrated to him. Consequently, anything impure or unclean was not allowed to enter the sacred space or touch anything clean or holy. If your language has a similar word, consider using it here. If not, consider using a generic term. Alternate translation: “polluted … polluted … polluted … polluted … is polluted himself” | |

Rather, it describes the carcass of any animal or insect that swarms or creeps on the ground, including winged, swarming insects, mice, rats, and lizards (see 11:20–23 and 11:24–29 for the full list of these animals). Express this in the way that would be most natural in your language. Alternate translation: “the dead body of any impure animal that creeps or swarms on the ground” | |

Alternate translation: “and he does not realize that he touched something unclean” | |
348 | 5:2 | a2xy | rc://*/ta/man/translate/figs-explicit | וְאָשֵֽׁם | 1 | Here, to become guilty means both to feel the internal sense of having done wrong and to enter into a legal state of needing to make reparations for wrongdoing, whether intentional or unintentional. As the General Introduction to the chapter discusses, this kind of guilt resulted in the need for the guilt offering, by which a person atoned for himself and made reparation for the impurity that he brought into the sacred space by his wrongdoing. Alternate translation: “and he needs to make reparations for his wrongdoing” | |

The phrase he mistook translates a verb that is related to the noun translated mistake. The repetition of related words adds emphasis to the statement. If your language can repeat words for emphasis and your language has comparable terms that you can use in your own translation, it would be appropriate to use that construction here in your translation.

441 | 5:18 | w9fo | rc://*/ta/man/translate/figs-explicit | וְה֥וּא לֹֽא־יָדַ֖ע | 1 | This phrase is a parenthetical aside that functions to provide essential background information for the current thought. That the individual himself did not know clarifies that he has done wrong without knowing it, as opposed to flagrantly defying Yahweh’s commandments (that is, the “sin with a high hand”). Alternate translation: “but he was unaware” | |
442 | 5:18 | irws | rc://*/ta/man/translate/figs-rpronouns | וְה֥וּא לֹֽא־יָדַ֖ע | 1 | This expression uses the reflexive pronoun himself to emphasize how significant it was that the person who previously was unaware of their unintentional sin has now come to realize what they had done.

443 | 5:18 | xtjs | rc://*/ta/man/translate/figs-ellipsis | וְה֥וּא לֹֽא־יָדַ֖ע | 1 | This expression leaves out some of the words that in many languages a sentence would need in order to be complete.

If the switch from feminine pronouns to masculine would be confusing in your language, consider using a generic word for a person. Alternate translation: “and that person denies his fellow citizen” | |
452 | 6:2 | hezk | rc://*/ta/man/translate/figs-explicit | וְכִחֵ֨שׁ בַּעֲמִית֜וֹ | 1 | As the General Introduction to this chapter discusses, in the context of 6:2–3, the expression denies his fellow citizen is an idiom that refers to the actions whereby someone swears a socially-binding oath with a member of their family or clan and commits himself or herself to certain actions regarding the other person, but afterward fails to behave in accordance with the stipulations of the oath. This could be done by stealing from the other individual, extorting them out of wages or any owed money, finding something that belongs to the other individual but failing to return it, or any other way of proving that the original oath was taken without intent to abide by it honestly. If the idiom here does not communicate this meaning in your language, consider using a more general expression. Alternate translation: “and he acts in such a way that breaks an oath that he made with his fellow citizen” | |
453 | 6:2 | jfwm | rc://*/ta/man/translate/figs-explicit | בַּעֲמִית֜וֹ | 1 | Here, a fellow citizen does not refer to “citizens” in a modern sense.

457 | 6:2 | d182 | rc://*/ta/man/translate/figs-explicit | א֖וֹ עָשַׁ֥ק אֶת־עֲמִיתֽוֹ | 1 | Here, to extort a fellow citizen refers to an employer refusing to pay an employee his or her wages or one member of a party willfully withholding a previously agreed-upon amount of money from the other.

459 | 6:3 | shnb | rc://*/ta/man/translate/figs-idiom | וְנִשְׁבַּ֣ע עַל־שָׁ֑קֶר | 1 | The expression swears on a lie is an idiom that refers to taking an oath with another person deceitfully, that is, with the intention not to carry out the required actions of the oath. Alternate translation: “or he swears an oath without the intention to fulfill the conditions of the oath and so swears the oath deceitfully” | |
460 | 6:3 | zsj2 | rc://*/ta/man/translate/figs-explicit | וְנִשְׁבַּ֣ע | 1 | The expression he swears does not refer to the use of profanity or taboo language. Rather, it refers to taking an oath with another person that publicly binds an individual to particular actions.

Alternate translation: “whenever he realizes that he is guilty” or (2) the day on which this individual offers their guilt offering. Alternate translation: “one the day when he offers his guilt offering” | |
477 | 6:5 | szar | rc://*/ta/man/translate/figs-abstractnouns | בְּי֥וֹם אַשְׁמָתֽוֹ | 1 | Here, the abstract noun guilt does not refer to the guilt offering to which the same expression in 5:6 and elsewhere in the previous chapter referred. Rather, it refers to either: (1) both the internal sense of having committed wrongdoing and the legal state of needing to provide reparations for that wrongdoing, whether intentional or unintentional, in the same sense as the expression that you encountered in 6:4.

In other words, the person’s guilt comes as a result of something that they have done. If it would be helpful in your language, consider stating the meaning plainly.

491 | 6:9 | hck7 | rc://*/ta/man/translate/figs-metaphor | אֶֽת־אַהֲרֹן֙ וְאֶת־בָּנָ֣יו | 1 | As in 2:2, at the time when Yahweh spoke to Moses from the tent of meeting, Aaron and his sons* constituted the priesthood. But these instructions also applied to future generations, when the term “sons” would be a way of referring to the priests as Aaron's “descendants.” If it would be clearer in your language, you could use that term, which would apply to both the original priests and their successors.

As such, the expression on the hearth and on the altar mean basically the same thing. The second expression emphasizes the meaning of the first by repeating the same idea with different words. If it would be helpful to your readers, you could connect the clauses with a word that shows that the second clause is repeating the first one, not saying something additional.

If your language has a similar idiom used to describe a fire that completely burns something, consider using it here. If not, consider using a generic expression.

If it would be helpful in your language, consider choosing language that makes it plain that the author is not referring to a specific future action. Alternate translation: “In the location where the burnt offering would normally be slaughtered” | |
587 | 7:2 | i8iw | rc://*/ta/man/translate/writing-pronouns | יִשְׁחֲטוּ֙ & יִשְׁחֲט֖וּ | 1\n\n | Here, they refers generically to anyone who might perform these actions.

If the switch from second-person forms to third-person forms would be confusing in your language, consider using whichever form you have been using throughout the previous chapters. | |

601 | 7:7 | ftun | rc://*/ta/man/translate/figs-explicit | ל֥וֹ יִהְיֶֽה | 1 | The expression it will be for him means that the portion of the animal (in context, the skin of the peace offering, along with the breast meat and the right thigh) belongs to the priest as his allotment from Yahweh. It is questionable whether the skin serves as a food source for the priests, as the other portions do. Rather, it seems likely that the skin would be used for other, unspecified uses.

The possessive form, a burnt offering of a man, does not mean offering a human being as a burnt offering but rather, it means a burnt offering presented by any person, whoever they might be. If it would be helpful in your language, consider using a generic term for a person in this possessive form.

The peace offerings belong to Yahweh in the sense that they are dedicated especially to Yahweh’s special purposes.

This could be: (1) an idiom that refers to Yahweh’s executing divine judgment against the individual in some unspecified manner, thus removing the person from the people of God. Alternate translation: “then that person will be punished and removed from her people” or, to avoid the passive form, “then Yahweh will execute divine judgment against that person and remove her from her people” or (2) a metaphor that refers to the people excommunicating the individual from her community.

The breast and the fat on the breast were considered uniquely choice portions of meat and fat. Consequently, it was dedicated especially to Yahweh. If your language has a special term for this portion of meat and fat, consider using it here. If not, consider using a generic expression.

This act could mean: (1) merely presenting the sacrifice to Yahweh in a unique way.

711 | 7:32 | f116 | rc://*/ta/man/translate/translate-unknown | וְאֵת֙ שׁ֣וֹק הַיָּמִ֔ין | 1 | The right thigh is the upper part of the right leg of the animal, directly above the knee and below the hip joint. Although the reason for the choice of the right portion of the thighs is unknown and debated, the thigh itself was considered a uniquely choice portion of meat, and so was especially dedicated to Yahweh and to his special purposes, like providing food for the priests. If your language has a word for this choice portion of an animal’s meat, consider using it here. If not, consider using a generic expression. Alternate translation: “And the choice portion of meat between the hip and the knee joints on the right leg of the animal” | |

At the time that Yahweh spoke these instructions to Moses, they were the literal “sons of Aaron.” However, this expression refers to whichever priest happened to perform the symbolic action of presenting the blood of the peace offerings along with the fat.

Because the Levites, the sons of Aaron, were not given any portion of land and therefore could not farm for themselves, they were dependent on the contributions of their fellow Israelites for food. Yahweh provided this food by setting apart these choice portions for the priests. If this would not be clear from your translation, consider stating the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “the right thigh shall be for that priest, as the allocation of his food given by Yahweh” | |

1110 | 11:intro | i427 | 0 | Leviticus 11 General NotesStructure and formattingSpecial concepts in this chapterLaws about foodThis chapter contains a list of the animals the Israelites were not allowed to eat. Further research may be needed to determine the exact location of different parts of an animal. Many of these foods are not consumed to this day because they cause diseases, but it is unclear why the other foods are prohibited. Eating unclean foods made a person unclean. The process of consuming these types of foods spread the uncleanliness to a person. (See: [[rc://*/tw/dict/bible/kt/clean]]) | |||

The second emphasizes the meaning of the first by repeating the same idea with different words. If it would be helpful to your readers, you could connect the phrases with a word that shows that the second phrase is repeating the first one, not saying something additional.

Instead, this expression may refer to waving one’s hands over the living lamb or some other physical motion that demarcated the lamb (and the oil) as the kind of sacrifice that qualified as a wave offering. It may be helpful to clarify this for your readers in a footnote or in the text of your translation. Alternate translation: “And he shall wave his hands over them as a wave offering to the face of Yahweh” | |

The second emphasizes the meaning of the first by repeating the same idea with different words. Here, in the holy place clarifies the previous phrase and further defines where the priest was to kill the lamb.

Rather, the present tense is being used both to describe an action that was previously described in the book of Leviticus and to depict a hypothetical situation. If it would be helpful in your language, consider choosing language that makes it plain that the author is not referring to specific past actions. Alternate translation: “in the same place where he might slaughter the sin offering and the burnt offering” | |

This action ritually cleanses the holy space where Yahweh lives of any impurity that the person who had the skin disease might have brought into the tent of meeting. It may be helpful to explain the significance of this action to your readers in a footnote or in the text of your translation.

Here, the priest is telling the people what to do with the house that is infected with mold or mildew. You could supply these words from earlier in the sentence if it would be clearer in your language. Alternate translation: “Then the priest shall tell the people what to do” | |
