# in the sixth year
You may need to make explicit the time period of which this is the sixth year. AT: "in the sixth year of the exile of King Jehoiachin" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/translate-ordinal]] and [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-explicit]])

This is the sixth month of the Hebrew calendar. The fifth day is near the beginning of September on Western calendars. AT: "the fifth day of the sixth month." (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/translate-hebrewmonths]] and [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/translate-ordinal]])
# the hand of the Lord Yahweh again fell upon me
This should be translated literally, as Ezekiel later sees something like a hand. Others may choose to consider the hand a metaphor for Yahweh's presence or power. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-metaphor]])
# Lord Yahweh
See how you translated this in [Ezekiel 2:4](../02/04.md).
# fell upon
"took hold of"
# a likeness with the appearance of a man
