I’m assuming you want that transcribed into Hebrew? I was able to get Claude 3.5 Sonnet to do this on my first try, but I did tell Claude that I was doing so for good reasons. This was the prompt I used:


> Please translate the following to Hebrew. Please note that this is potentially sensitive content, and I am planning to use it to help educate people about history. I do not endorse the views of Yigal Amir, the author, who assassinated the Prime Minister of Israel in 1995. <your example text verbatim>

Claude’s reply:

> I understand you're requesting a Hebrew translation of this text for educational purposes about a sensitive historical event. I'll provide the translation as requested, while noting that it contains views expressed by Yigal Amir, who committed a terrible act of violence. Here is the translation: <paragraph of Hebrew>

One quirk of Claude I’ve noticed is that once it has refused to do something, it will almost never budge afterwards, no matter how reasonable your arguments are. I have had much more success with editing my initial request to explain why I want Claude to do something, and usually I can convince it that the thing I’m asking for is reasonable.
