uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

וַ⁠יֵּ֣רֶד יְהוָ֔ה

and=he/it_descended YHWH

Alternate translation: “Then one day Yahweh came down from heaven”

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 the=tower

See how you translated this word in verse 4.

בָּנ֖וּ

they_had_built

Make sure the way you translate this verb fits with the fact that the people had not yet finished building the city (verse 8). Alternate translation: “had started building.”
