Note 1 topic: writing-pronouns
וַיֵּרָ֤א אֵלָיו֙ יְהוָ֔ה
and,appeared to=him/it YHWH
See how you translated appeared in Gen 12:7. Also consider whether it is more natural in your language to refer to Isaac here with his name or a pronoun. Alternate translation: “Then Yahweh came to Isaac”
Note 2 topic: writing-quotations
וַיֹּ֖אמֶר
and=he/it_said
Consider what is the best way in your language to translate this quote margin. Alternate translation: “and said to him,” or “and told him,”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
אַל תֵּרֵ֣ד
not go_down
Egypt was lower in elevation and also south of the land of the Philistines. Many translations leave that information implied. Do what is best in your language. Alternate translation: “Do not go south” or “Do not travel”
מִצְרָ֑יְמָה
towards=Miʦrayim/(Egypt)
Alternate translation: “to the land of Egypt,”
שְׁכֹ֣ן בָּאָ֔רֶץ אֲשֶׁ֖ר אֹמַ֥ר אֵלֶֽיךָ
live on_the=earth which/who tell to,you
Alternate translation: “but rather live in the land wherever I tell you to live.” or “but rather live wherever I tell you to live.”
26:1-35 In this digression from Jacob’s story, Isaac’s prosperity (ch 26) shows that the blessing had passed to him (cp. 25:11) despite his failures of faith.
