וַיָּבֹ֥א אֶל הָגָ֖ר
and,went_in to/towards Hāgār
Consider whether it is better in your language to refer to Abram by his name or by a pronoun here at the beginning of this paragraph. See how you translated the idiom “go to” in verse 2. Alternate translation: “So Abram slept with Hagar,” or “So he had marital relations with Hagar,”
Note 2 topic: grammar-connect-logic-result
וַתַּ֑הַר
and=she/it_conceived/became_pregnant
Alternate translation: “and as a result,” or “and so”
וַתַּ֑הַר
and=she/it_conceived/became_pregnant
Make sure that the way you translate this phrase will not be embarrassing or offensive to people, especially when it is read aloud. Alternate translation: “and as a result, she became pregnant.” or “and so she became pregnant.”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom
וַתֵּ֨רֶא֙ כִּ֣י הָרָ֔תָה
and=she/it_saw that/for/because/then/when conceived
The word saw is used here as an idiom that means “realized” or “perceived”. Consider whether or not you have a similar idiom in your language that would work well here. Alternate translation: “But when she saw that she was pregnant,”
Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive
וַתֵּקַ֥ל גְּבִרְתָּ֖הּ בְּעֵינֶֽיהָ
and,became_contemptible mistress,her in/on/at/with,eyes,her
The phrase despised in her eyes is an idiom that refers here to Hagar’s attitude and disrespectful actions toward Sarai. Consider whether or not your language has a similar idiom. Also consider what is the best way to translate this passive clause in your language. Alternate translation: “she despised her owner Sarai.” or “she treated her owner Sarai with contempt” or “she started to look down on her mistress Sarai.”
16:1-16 While waiting for their promised son to be born, Abram and Sarai attempted an alternate plan that was not in keeping with faith.

OET (OET-RV) So he slept with Hagar and she got pregnant, but once she realised that she began to despise her mistress.
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.
