οὐκ ἐπεγίνωσκον
not ˱they˲_/were/_recognizing
Here and in the rest of this verse and in the next verse, the pronoun they refers to the sailors. It may be helpful to clarify this for your readers. Alternate translation: [the sailors were not recognizing]
Note 2 topic: translate-unknown
κόλπον & τινα
bay & /a/_certain
A bay is a large area of water that partly surrounded by land but open to a larger body of water. Your language may have a specific expression for this kind of area. If not, you could explain the meaning generally. Alternate translation: [a certain area of water sheltered by the land]
27:39-41 They ran the ship aground on a shoal or reef.

Note: The OET-RV is still only a first draft, and so far only a few words have been (mostly automatically) matched to the Hebrew or Greek words that they’re translated from.
