OET (OET-RV) If some brothers live on the same property and one of them dies without leaving a son, then the widow mustn’t marry outside of the family. Her brother-in-law must take her as a wife for himself and perform the duty of a brother-in-law.

Moses is giving instructions for what should happen to the widow in the possible situation in which brothers live together and one of them dies, and he does not have a son. Use a connector that makes it clear that this is what to do if that situation happens. Alternate translation: [then the wife of the dead man shall not marry a strange man from outside]

brother_of,her_husband's go_in on/upon=it(f)
Moses is referring to sexual relations in a polite way by using the phrase go in to her. Depending on what is helpful in your language, you could use a polite way of referring to this in your language, or you could state this plainly. Alternate translation: [have sexual relations with her] or [marry her and consummate the marriage]

Your language may have its own term or expression for the relationship described in brother-in-law. Alternate translation: [The brother of her dead husband]

Moses is leaving out some of the words that in many languages a sentence would need in order to be complete. You can supply these words from the context if that would be clearer in your language. Alternate translation: [and perform the duty of a brother-in-law to her]

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.
