OET (OET-RV) When Elizabeth was six months pregnant, God sent his messenger Gabriel to Nazareth, a city in the Galilee region.
Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
ἐν & τῷ μηνὶ τῷ ἕκτῳ
in & the month the sixth
Luke assumes that readers will recognize that this does not mean the sixth month of the year, but the sixth month of Elizabeth’s pregnancy. If you think there could be some confusion about this, you could state that explicitly. Alternate translation: “after Elizabeth had been pregnant for six months”
Note 2 topic: translate-ordinal
τῷ μηνὶ τῷ ἕκτῳ
the month the sixth
If your language does not use ordinal numbers, you can use a cardinal number here. Alternate translation: “month 6”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive
ἀπεστάλη ὁ ἄγγελος Γαβριὴλ ἀπὸ τοῦ Θεοῦ
/was/_sent_out the angel Gabriel by ¬the God
If it would be helpful in your language, you could express this with an active form. Alternate translation: “God sent the angel Gabriel”

OET (OET-LV) And in the the sixth month, the messenger Gabriaʸl was_sent_out by the god to a_city the of_Galilaia/(Gālīl), to_whose name was Nazaret,
OET (OET-RV) When Elizabeth was six months pregnant, God sent his messenger Gabriel to Nazareth, a city in the Galilee region.
Note: The OET-RV is still only a first draft, and so far only a few words have been (mostly automatically) matched to the Greek words that they’re translated from.
