OET (OET-LV)And_he/it_made_sprout YHWH god from the_soil every tree desirable to/for_appearance and_good for_food and_tree the_life in_the_middle the_garden and_tree the_knowledge good and_bad/evil.

OET (OET-RV)He also caused all kinds of trees to grow there—some that are pleasant to look at and good for food. In the middle of the garden was the tree of life and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: writing-pronouns

וַ⁠יַּצְמַ֞ח יְהוָ֤ה אֱלֹהִים֙ מִן־הָ֣⁠אֲדָמָ֔ה כָּל־עֵ֛ץ נֶחְמָ֥ד

and=he/it_made_sprout YHWH ʼElohīm from/more_than the=soil all/each/any/every tree/word desirable

See how you translated Yahweh God in verse 5, and how you translated every tree in Gen 1:29. Alternate translation: “There he had caused to grow from the ground every type of tree that is beautiful” or “He had made all kinds of trees to grow from the ground that are pleasant”

לְ⁠מַרְאֶ֖ה

to/for=appearance

Alternate translation: “to the eyes” or “in appearance”

וְ⁠ט֣וֹב

and=good

Alternate translation: “and that have fruit that is good” or “and whose fruit is good”

לְ⁠מַאֲכָ֑ל

for=food

Alternate translation: “for eating,”

וְ⁠עֵ֤ץ הַֽ⁠חַיִּים֙ בְּ⁠ת֣וֹךְ הַ⁠גָּ֔ן

and=tree the=life in_the=middle the=garden

Consider whether or not it is better in your language to begin a new sentence here. Alternate translation: “including the tree whose fruit gives people eternal life, which was in the middle of the garden,”

Note 2 topic: translate-key-terms

וְ⁠עֵ֕ץ הַ⁠דַּ֖עַת ט֥וֹב וָ⁠רָֽע

and=tree the=knowledge good and=bad/evil

The word good refers here to all that is morally right and pleasing to God, and evil refers to what is morally wrong and against his will. Keep that in mind as you translate these terms. Alternate translation: “as well as the tree whose fruit enables people to discern what is right and what is wrong.”

TSN Tyndale Study Notes:

2:9 Beauty and bounty characterized humanity’s original environment (cp. 13:10).
• The tree of life represented God’s presence and provision. The one who ate of it would have everlasting life (3:22), which made it a rich image for later Israelite and Christian reflection (Prov 3:18; 11:30; 13:12; Rev 2:7; 22:2, 14, 19). The candlestick in Israel’s Tabernacle may have been a stylized representation of it (Exod 25:31-35).
• Eating the fruit of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil enabled humanity’s capacity for wisdom (Gen 3:6) and moral discernment (3:5, 22; cp. Deut 1:39, “innocent”). Eating from it represented a human grasp for autonomy and wisdom that were God’s alone (cp. Prov 30:1-4). Humans sidestepped God’s revelation as the means of moral discernment, flaunting their independence rather than submitting to God’s will (cp. Prov 1:7). Choosing human wisdom over God’s instruction brings death and destruction (see Ps 19:7-9; Ezek 28:6, 15-17).
