OET (OET-LV) Another parable he_spoke to_them:
the kingdom of_the heavens is Similar to_leaven, which a_woman having_taken, hid_in in three satons of_wheat_flour, until all of_which was_leavened.

Note 1 topic: writing-pronouns
αὐτοῖς
˱to˲_them
The pronoun them refers to the people who were standing by the side of the sea of Galilee (see 13:2). If this is not clear for your readers, you could refer to those people more directly. See how you expressed the idea in 13:24. Alternate translation: “to the people standing on the shore” or “to those people”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / parables
ὁμοία ἐστὶν ἡ Βασιλεία τῶν Οὐρανῶν ζύμῃ
similar is the Kingdom ˱of˲_the Heavens ˱to˲_leaven
To teach the people in the crowd, Jesus offers a story or illustration. If it would be helpful to your readers, you could indicate that explicitly. Alternate translation: “Listen to this story: the kingdom of the heavens is like yeast”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
ζύμῃ
˱to˲_leaven
Jesus assumes that his listeners will know that only a little bit of yeast is needed to make a lot of dough rise. If it would be helpful to your readers, you could state that explicitly. Alternate translation: “a little bit of yeast”
Note 4 topic: translate-bvolume
ἀλεύρου σάτα τρία
˱of˲_wheat_flour satons three
The term seahs is the plural of “seah,” a dry measure equivalent to nearly eight liters or two gallons. You can express this quantity in terms of a measure that your culture uses, or you can use a general expression. Alternate translation: “a large amount of flour”
Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive
ἕως οὗ ἐζυμώθη ὅλον
until ˱of˲_which /was/_leavened all
If your language does not use this passive form, you could express the idea in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. If you need to say who did the action, it is clear from the context that it was the yeast. Alternate translation: “until the yeast leavened it all”
13:33 Normally yeast refers to the influence of evil (e.g., 16:6; 1 Cor 5:6; Gal 5:9); here, however, it is positive, speaking of the all-pervasive influence of the Kingdom.

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.
