uW Translation Notes:

וַ⁠תֹּ֕אמֶר

(Some words not found in UHB: and=she/it_said see/lo/see! maidservant_of,my Bilhāh go_in to=her/it so,that_she_may_bear_children on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in knees_of,my and,so_that_I_may_be_built_up also/even I from,her )

Alternate translation: [Rachel replied to him]

הִנֵּ֛ה אֲמָתִ֥⁠י בִלְהָ֖ה

Alternate translation: [Here is my servant woman Bilhah] or [You can take my servant woman Bilhah as a wife]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / euphemism

בֹּ֣א אֵלֶ֑י⁠הָ

See how you translated this euphemism in Genesis 16:2. Alternate translation: [Sleep with her]

וְ⁠תֵלֵד֙

so,that_she_may_bear_children

Alternate translation: [so that she can give birth to children] or [so that she can have children]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom

עַל־בִּרְכַּ֔⁠י

on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in (Some words not found in UHB: and=she/it_said see/lo/see! maidservant_of,my Bilhāh go_in to=her/it so,that_she_may_bear_children on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in knees_of,my and,so_that_I_may_be_built_up also/even I from,her )

The idiom bear children on my knees means that Bilhah’s children would be considered Rachel’s children. It may come from the custom of immediately putting a newborn child on the lap of the father and mother to symbolize that the child belonged to them. Alternate translation: [for me who will sit on my lap] or [as my surrogate]

וְ⁠אִבָּנֶ֥ה גַם־אָנֹכִ֖י מִמֶּֽ⁠נָּה

See how you translated built up from her in Genesis 16:2. Alternate translation: [so that from her children I too can build a family] or [so that I too can build a family]

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.
