כַּאֲשֶׁ֤ר יָצָא֙ מִבֶּ֣טֶן אִמּ֔וֹ עָר֛וֹם יָשׁ֥וּב לָלֶ֖כֶת כְּשֶׁבָּ֑א
just=as he/it_went_forth from,the_womb_of his/its=mother naked again to=go just,as,he_came
The point of this comparison is that just as he went out from the womb of his mother, naked, entering the world with nothing, so also he will go again and leave the world with nothing. If it would be helpful in your language, you could make this point explicitly. Alternate translation: [Just as he came out of his mother’s womb with nothing, so he will leave this world with nothing]

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.
Acknowledgements: The Hebrew text, lemmas, and morphology are all thanks to the OSHB and some of the glosses are from Macula Hebrew.
