Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
ὥραν ἐνάτην
hour /the/_ninth
This was the normal afternoon prayer time for Jews. Cornelius, as a Gentile who worshiped the God of Israel, would have praying at this time. Alternate translation: “during his afternoon prayer time”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom
ὥραν ἐνάτην
hour /the/_ninth
In this culture, people began counting the hours each day beginning around daybreak at six o’clock in the morning. If it would be clearer in your language, you could express this in the way the people of your culture reckon time.
Note 3 topic: translate-ordinal
ὥραν ἐνάτην
hour /the/_ninth
If you decide to translate this in the way that the biblical culture reckoned time, but your language does not use ordinal numbers, you could use a cardinal number here. Alternate translation: “around hour nine”
10:3 In Acts, visions are usually related to prayer (9:3-6, 10-16; 10:2-6, 9-12; 11:5-9; 12:9-17; 18:9-10; 22:17-21; 23:11). These visions are not chance coincidences, but expressions of God’s saving work, providing divine direction and encouragement.

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.
