uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: writing-newevent

וַֽ⁠יְהִי־ה֗וּא טֶרֶם֮ כִּלָּ֣ה לְ⁠דַבֵּר֒

and=he/it_was he/it before/not_yet (Some words not found in UHB: and=he/it_was he/it before/not_yet finished to,speak and=see/lo/see! Riⱱqāh came_out which/who born to,Bethuel son_of Milkah wife_of Nāḩōr brother_of ʼAⱱrāhām's and,jar_of,her on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in shoulder_of,her )

The author is using the word translated as And it happened to introduce a new development in the story. Use a word, phrase, or other method in your language that is natural for introducing a new development.

וְ⁠הִנֵּ֧ה

(Some words not found in UHB: and=he/it_was he/it before/not_yet finished to,speak and=see/lo/see! Riⱱqāh came_out which/who born to,Bethuel son_of Milkah wife_of Nāḩōr brother_of ʼAⱱrāhām's and,jar_of,her on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in shoulder_of,her )

This phrase spotlights Rebekah and shows that she is the center of attention. Consider what is the best way to communicate that in your language. Alternate translation: [just then he saw] or [suddenly he saw]

Note 2 topic: writing-participants

רִבְקָ֣ה יֹצֵ֗את

Riⱱqāh came_out

Here the author is introducing Rebekah as a new participant in the story. Your language may have its own way of introducing new participants that you can use in your translation. Consider what is the best way in your language to introduce Rebekah here for the first time in this episode. Some translations use an exclamation point to help show the excitement.

אֲשֶׁ֤ר יֻלְּדָה֙ לִ⁠בְתוּאֵ֣ל

(Some words not found in UHB: and=he/it_was he/it before/not_yet finished to,speak and=see/lo/see! Riⱱqāh came_out which/who born to,Bethuel son_of Milkah wife_of Nāḩōr brother_of ʼAⱱrāhām's and,jar_of,her on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in shoulder_of,her )

Alternate translation: [Her father was Bethuel]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / infostructure

וְ⁠כַדָּ֖⁠הּ עַל־שִׁכְמָֽ⁠הּ

(Some words not found in UHB: and=he/it_was he/it before/not_yet finished to,speak and=see/lo/see! Riⱱqāh came_out which/who born to,Bethuel son_of Milkah wife_of Nāḩōr brother_of ʼAⱱrāhām's and,jar_of,her on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in shoulder_of,her )

For some languages it may be more natural to put this clause earlier in this verse and say, “Rebekah was coming out of the city with/carrying her/a water jar/jug on her shoulder.” Alternate translation: [She was carrying a water jug on her shoulder] or [She had a water jug on her shoulder]
