not sow (Some words not found in UHB: not sow vineyard_of,your two_kinds_of_seed lest defiled the_full,produce the,seed which/who sown and,the_produce_of of,the_vineyard )
Planting a vineyard with two kinds of seed was a symbolic action that showed the importance of maintaining separation and purity. This prohibition represented how Israel was to remain distinct and set apart from other nations, not mixing their religious and cultural practices with those of surrounding peoples. If it would be helpful to your readers, you could explain the significance of this action in the text of your translation or in a footnote. Alternate translation: [You shall not mix different types of seed in your vineyard to show that you must remain pure and unmixed with other nations]

פֶּן־תִּקְדַּ֗שׁ הַֽמְלֵאָ֤ה הַזֶּ֨רַע֙ אֲשֶׁ֣ר תִּזְרָ֔ע וּתְבוּאַ֖ת הַכָּֽרֶם
(Some words not found in UHB: not sow vineyard_of,your two_kinds_of_seed lest defiled the_full,produce the,seed which/who sown and,the_produce_of of,the_vineyard )
Moses is using the word translated as lest to introduce an outcome that he does not want to happen. Because of this, he first gives the Israelites an instruction to follow so that this will not happen. Use a connector in your language that makes it clear that avoiding this outcome is the purpose of the instruction. Alternate translation: [otherwise all the produce of the seed that you have sown and the yield of the vineyard will be set apart]

(Some words not found in UHB: not sow vineyard_of,your two_kinds_of_seed lest defiled the_full,produce the,seed which/who sown and,the_produce_of of,the_vineyard )
This could mean: (1) the crops would become dedicated to Yahweh, and sent to the priests and Levites for their food. Alternate translation: [be dedicated to Yahweh] or (2) the crops would be defiled and could not be eaten by anyone or offered to Yahweh. Alternate translation: [be defiled and have to be destroyed]

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.
