uW Translation Notes:

וַ⁠יֵּ֣רֶד יְהוָ֔ה

(Some words not found in UHB: and=he/it_descended YHWH for=seeing DOM the=city and=DOM the=tower which/who they_had_built sons_of the=humankind )

Alternate translation: [Then one day Yahweh came down from heaven]

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

לִ⁠רְאֹ֥ת אֶת־הָ⁠עִ֖יר

for=seeing DOM the=city

The text implies that Yahweh actually looked at the city. Consider whether or not it is better in your language to make that explicit here. Alternate translation: [and inspected the city]

וְ⁠אֶת־הַ⁠מִּגְדָּ֑ל

and=DOM (Some words not found in UHB: and=he/it_descended YHWH for=seeing DOM the=city and=DOM the=tower which/who they_had_built sons_of the=humankind )

See how you translated this word in [verse 4](../11/04.md).

בָּנ֖וּ

(Some words not found in UHB: and=he/it_descended YHWH for=seeing DOM the=city and=DOM the=tower which/who they_had_built sons_of the=humankind )

Make sure the way you translate this verb fits with the fact that the people had not yet finished building the city (Genesis [11:8](../11/08.md)). Alternate translation: [had started building] or [had begun constructing]

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.
