When the English religious reformers John Wycliffe and, later, William Tyndale translated the Book of Genesis, both agreed that the angelic messenger stops Abraham from sacrificing Isaac with an injunction to spare the \u201cchild\u201d. In 1611, however, the committee of scholars that oversaw King James\u2019s translation had another idea for the Hebrew na\u2019ar. Now the verse read: \u201cLay not thine hand upon the lad.\u201d That simple, unforgettable formulation \u2013 one of thousands in the King James Version \u2013 resonated down the centuries. During the First World War, the poet Wilfred Owen despairingly invoked it (in \u201cThe Parable of the Old Man and the Young\u201d) to denounce a generation of bloodthirsty patriarchs who flouted the divine command and \u201cslew half the seed of Europe, one by one\u201d. </span></span></span></em></p><p class="mcePastedContent" style="line-height: 1.5; mso-line-height-alt: 150%;"><br /></p><p class="mcePastedContent last-child"><em><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0);"><span style="font-size: 17px"><span style="font-family: 'Lora', Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif">Translations may have long afterlives across space and time.

Or craft. Or mystery. However we categorise what literary translators do, they deserve more than anonymity and invisibility. This century, a number of awards have begun to raise their profile \u2013 and honour their calling \u2013 in the Anglosphere. The Freudenheim Translation Prize will make a precious addition to that company. It will enrich the unfolding dialogue between peoples, cultures, ages and subjects that translation has always, crucially, helped to convene. As for translators, they deserve all the rewards we can give to ensure that their vocation amounts to more than just a \u201clabour of love\u201d (a Tyndale coinage), especially as untried AI services now claim to usurp their role. Thanks to this prize, the true art of translation will continue to go \u2013 as, in 1535, Miles Coverdale\u2019s rendering of Psalm 84 put it \u2013 \u201cfrom strength to strength\u201d.</span></span></span></em></p></div></td></tr></tbody></table></td></tr></tbody></table></td></tr><tr><td style="background-color:transparent" valign="top" id="b547"><table border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%" role="presentation" data-block-id="547"><tbody><tr><td valign="top" class="mceSpacerBlock" height="20"></td></tr></tbody></table></td></tr><tr><td style="padding-top:0;padding-bottom:0;padding-right:0;padding-left:0" valign="top" id="b533"><table width="100%" style="border:0;border-radius:0;border-collapse:separate"><tbody><tr><td style="padding-left:20px;padding-right:20px;padding-top:10px;padding-bottom:10px" class="mceTextBlockContainer"><div data-block-id="533" class="mceText" id="d533" style="width:100%"><p style="text-align: center;" class="last-child"><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0);"><span style="font-size: 17px"><span style="font-family: 'Lora', Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif"><span style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255)">Presented in partnership with the</span></span></span></span><strong><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0);"><span style="font-size: 17px"><span style="font-family: 'Lora', Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif"><span style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255)"> Times Literary Supplement </span></span></span></span></strong><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0);"><span style="font-size: 17px"><span style="font-family: 'Lora', Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif"><span style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255)">and supported by the </span></span></span></span><strong><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0);"><span style="font-size: 17px"><span style="font-family: 'Lora', Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif"><span style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255)">Freudenheim family.</span></span></span><span style="font-size: 16px"><span style="font-family: 'Lora', Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif"><span style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255)"> </span></span></span></span></strong></p></div></td></tr></tbody></table></td></tr><tr><td style="padding-top:10px;padding-bottom:10px;padding-right:20px;padding-left:20px" valign="top" class="mceButtonBlockContainer" align="center" id="b528"><div><!--[if !mso]><!--></div><table align="center" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" role="presentation" data-block-id="528" class="mceButtonContainer"><tbody><tr class="mceStandardButton"><td style="background-color:#f05f23;border-radius:50px;text-align:center" valign="top" class="mceButton"><a href="https://jewishliteraryfoundation.us6.list-manage.com/track/click?u=afc6346993e8da54250d4cd30&id=53bba84571&e=9da8a37a61" target="_blank" class="mceButtonLink" style="background-color:#f05f23;border-radius:50px;border:1px solid #f05f23;color:#ffffff;display:block;font-family:Arial, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:18px;font-weight:bold;font-style:normal;padding:16px 18px;text-decoration:none;text-align:center;direction:ltr;letter-spacing:0px" rel="noreferrer">Find out more here</a></td></tr></tbody></table><div><!--<![endif]--></div><table align="center" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" role="presentation" data-block-id="528" class="mceButtonContainer"><tbody><tr>
