וַנָּב֖וֹא
(Some words not found in UHB: and,we_came Yərūshālaim/(Jerusalem) and,we_remained there days three )
The word so indicates that the sentence it introduces explains the results of what the previous sentence described. The group reached Jerusalem safely because God protected them. Alternate translation: [As a result, we came]

וַנָּב֖וֹא & וַנֵּ֥שֶׁב
(Some words not found in UHB: and,we_came Yərūshālaim/(Jerusalem) and,we_remained there days three )
As Ezra tells his story, he uses we in the exclusive sense, that is, it excludes the reader.
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
וַנָּב֖וֹא יְרוּשָׁלִָ֑ם וַנֵּ֥שֶׁב שָׁ֖ם יָמִ֥ים שְׁלֹשָֽׁה
(Some words not found in UHB: and,we_came Yərūshālaim/(Jerusalem) and,we_remained there days three )
Ezra does not say specifically why the group waited for three days before delivering the silver and gold and objects to the temple. But the implication is that this gave them a chance to rest after their journey and arrange for the delivery. If it would be helpful to your readers, you could say that explicitly. Alternate translation: [We reached Jerusalem safely, and after we got there, we rested for three days]
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.
