OET (OET-RV) I’ve seen wicked people being buried—
⇔ being carried out from a sacred place,
⇔ and what they’d done there in the city was just forgotten.
⇔ That’s also pointless.
Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive
(Occurrence 0) the wicked buried publicly
(Some words not found in UHB: and,in,such saw wicked buried and,they_came and,from,a_place_of holy went and,they_will_be_forgotten in,city which/who yes/correct/thus/so they_had_acquired also/yet this Abel )
If your language does not use the passive form in this way, you can state this in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. Evil people that died were given honorable burials. Alternate translation: [people bury the wicked publicly]
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive
(Occurrence 0) They were taken from the holy area and buried and were praised by people

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.
