uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: writing-newevent

וַֽ⁠יְהִ֖י

(Some words not found in UHB: and=he/it_was on=their=pulling_out from=east and=they_found (a)_plain in=land Shinˊār and=they_lived there )

The author is using the word translated as And it happened to introduce a new development in the story. Use a word, phrase, or other method in your language that is natural for introducing a new development.

Note 2 topic: writing-pronouns

בְּ⁠נָסְעָ֣⁠ם

(Some words not found in UHB: and=he/it_was on=their=pulling_out from=east and=they_found (a)_plain in=land Shinˊār and=they_lived there )

Consider whether it is better in your language to use a pronoun (they) or a noun phrase the people here. Alternate translation: [they traveled] or [the people moved]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

מִ⁠קֶּ֑דֶם

(Some words not found in UHB: and=he/it_was on=their=pulling_out from=east and=they_found (a)_plain in=land Shinˊār and=they_lived there )

At first after the flood, people lived in the regions around the mountains of Ararat (where the ark had landed). As they began to migrate and spread out to different places (as God had told them to do), they must have headed south at some point since they ended up at the plain of Shinar, which was south of where the Ararat Mountains were. The reference to the east probably reflects the viewpoint of the author (Moses), since the Ararat mountains and the plain of Shinar were both far to the east of where he was living. Alternate translation: [around in the eastern regions]

וַֽ⁠יִּמְצְא֥וּ

(Some words not found in UHB: and=he/it_was on=their=pulling_out from=east and=they_found (a)_plain in=land Shinˊār and=they_lived there )

Make sure the way you translate this phrase fits with the way you translated the first half of this verse. Alternate translation: [that they discovered] or [that they eventually came to]

בִקְעָ֛ה בְּ⁠אֶ֥רֶץ שִׁנְעָ֖ר

(a)_plain (Some words not found in UHB: and=he/it_was on=their=pulling_out from=east and=they_found (a)_plain in=land Shinˊār and=they_lived there )

This plain was a wide, flat area between mountains. Also be consistent here with how you translated land of Shinar in Genesis [10:10](../10/10.md). Alternate translation: [a wide flat area in the land called Shinar]

וַ⁠יֵּ֥שְׁבוּ שָֽׁם

(Some words not found in UHB: and=he/it_was on=their=pulling_out from=east and=they_found (a)_plain in=land Shinˊār and=they_lived there )

Alternate translation: [and lived there] or [and began to live there]

OET (OET-LV) And_he/it_was on_their_pulling_out from_east and_they_found a_plain in_land of_Shinˊār and_they_lived there.

OET (OET-RV) and as they migrated from the east, they discovered a plain in the Shinar region and settled there.

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.
