OET (OET-RV) Shem (the younger brother of Yafet) also had some sons and became the ancestor of all the descendants of Eber.

and,to,Shem he/it_was_born also/yet
In the Hebrew text, to Shem comes first in this sentence after And, to emphasize Shem. Do what is natural in your language. Alternate translation: “Shem also fathered some sons”
אֲחִ֖י יֶ֥פֶת הַגָּדֽוֹל
brother Yafet the,older
The Hebrew text is ambiguous here. It could mean: (1) “and his/Shem’s older brother was Japheth.” (2) “and he/Shem was Japheth’s older/oldest brother.”
10:21 Shem, the older brother of Japheth, was the father of the Semitic peoples. The descendants listed represent countries east of Israel (modern Iraq, Iran, and Syria). The narrator lists these locations within Mesopotamia since Abram, the father of Israel, originated from this area (see 11:27-32).
• Eber receives special attention because of his connection with Abram (see study note on 10:24).

OET (OET-RV) Shem (the younger brother of Yafet) also had some sons and became the ancestor of all the descendants of Eber.
Note: The OET-RV is still only a first draft, and so far only a few words have been (mostly automatically) matched to the Greek words that they’re translated from.
