OET (OET-LV)And_ Sārāh _died in/on/at/with_Qiryat- four that [is]_Ḩeⱱrōn in_land of_Kinaˊan/(Canaan) and_ ʼAⱱrāhām _went to_mourn for_Sārāh and_to_weep_her.

OET (OET-RV)when she died in the city of Kiriat-Arba (now called Hebron) in the Canaan region. Abraham went in by her bed to weep and mourn for her.

uW Translation Notes:

וַ⁠תָּ֣מָת שָׂרָ֗ה

and,died Sārāh

Consider whether it is better in your language to begin a new sentence here or to continue the previous sentence. Alternate translation: “Then she died” or “before she died”

Note 1 topic: translate-names

בְּ⁠קִרְיַ֥ת אַרְבַּ֛ע

in/on/at/with,Kiriath- four

You can spell this name as two words, as in the Hebrew text, or combine them into one word with or without a hyphen. Be consistent with how you spell this name throughout the Bible. Alternate translation: “in the city of Kiriath-arba,”

הִ֥וא חֶבְר֖וֹן

who/which Ḩeⱱrōn

The city of Kiriath Arba was later named Hebron (Joshua 14:15). Alternate translation: “which is also named Hebron,” or “also known as Hebron,” or “that is, Hebron,”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / infostructure

בְּ⁠אֶ֣רֶץ כְּנָ֑עַן

in=land Kenaan

For some languages it is more natural to put a general location before a specific location and say, “in the land of Canaan, in the city of Kiriath Arba, which is Hebron.” Do what is best in your language. Alternate translation: “in the land called Canaan.”

וַ⁠יָּבֹא֙ אַבְרָהָ֔ם

and,went ʼAⱱrāhām

Alternate translation: “Then Abraham came to her” or “Abraham came to her side”

לִ⁠סְפֹּ֥ד לְ⁠שָׂרָ֖ה וְ⁠לִ⁠בְכֹּתָֽ⁠הּ

to,mourn for,Sarah and,to,weep,her

For some languages it is necessary to translate this sentence using a verb form that expresses completion or past tense so that it is clear that Abraham actually did this. Do what is best in your language. Alternate translation: “to mourn and cry for her.”

TSN Tyndale Study Notes:

23:1-20 When Sarah . . . died, Abraham acquired a parcel of land for a burial place. This transaction was the first sign that a permanent transition had taken place, as people were normally buried in their ancestral homeland (cp. 49:29–50:13). In burying Sarah, Abraham detached from his just-mentioned ancestral home (where his relatives still lived, 22:20-24); his future would be in Canaan, where his descendants would realize the promise.

OET (OET-LV)And_ Sārāh _died in/on/at/with_Qiryat- four that [is]_Ḩeⱱrōn in_land of_Kinaˊan/(Canaan) and_ ʼAⱱrāhām _went to_mourn for_Sārāh and_to_weep_her.

OET (OET-RV)when she died in the city of Kiriat-Arba (now called Hebron) in the Canaan region. Abraham went in by her bed to weep and mourn for her.

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.
