and=he/it_was after (Some words not found in UHB: and=he/it_was after the,things the=these and,(the),God tested DOM ʼAⱱrāhām and=he/it_said to=him/it ʼAⱱrāhām and=he/it_said here,I_[am] )
This is the beginning of a new episode that takes place around twelve years after Abraham and King Abimelech made their treaty ([chapter 21](../21/01.md)). See how you translated “after those events” in Genesis [15:1](../15/01.md); it may be necessary to translate this phrase in a slightly different way here because of the different context. Alternate translation: [Sometime after those things happened] or [Several years later]
וְהָ֣אֱלֹהִ֔ים נִסָּ֖ה אֶת־אַבְרָהָ֑ם
and,(the),God (Some words not found in UHB: and=he/it_was after the,things the=these and,(the),God tested DOM ʼAⱱrāhām and=he/it_said to=him/it ʼAⱱrāhām and=he/it_said here,I_[am] )
Make sure your translation of this clause does not sound like the test was over. Rather it introduces what the following episode is about. Alternate translation: [God wanted to test Abraham]

Make sure it is clear in your translation who is speaking here. Alternate translation: [Abraham replied to him]

Abraham is responding to God with the courteous expression that a person in this culture would use to tell a superior that he had heard a summons and was ready and willing to obey. Your language may have a comparable expression that you can use in your translation. Alternate translation: [Yes, Master?] or [What is it, Lord]
OET (OET-LV) and_he/it_was after the_things the_these and_(the)_god he_put_to_the_test DOM ʼAⱱrāhām and_he/it_said to_him/it Oh_ʼAⱱrāhām and_he/it_said here_I_am.
OET (OET-RV) Several years later, God decided to test Abraham, calling him, “Abraham.”
¶ “Here I am,” he replied.
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.
Acknowledgements: The Hebrew text, lemmas, and morphology are all thanks to the OSHB and some of the glosses are from Macula Hebrew.
