## I am a smooth man ## "I am a man with smooth skin" or "I am not hairy" ## Perhaps my father will touch me ## This can also be translated as a rhetorical question: "What if my father touches me?" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-rquestion]]) ## and I will seem to him as a deceiver ## "and he will think that I am a liar." This can be a new sentence: "He will know that I am deceiving him." ## I will bring a curse upon me and not a blessing ## Alternate translation: "Then because of what I do, he will curse me and not bless me."
