Note 1 topic: writing-quotations
וַיֹּ֗אמֶר
and=he/it_said
Alternate translation: “The angel said”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom
שָׂא נָ֨א עֵינֶ֤יךָ
lift_up now eyes,your
See how you translated this idiom in Gen 22:13. Also see how you translated Gen 22:2, another passage where Yahweh uses Please. Alternate translation: “Look around you” or “Look carefully”
וּרְאֵה֙
and,see
Alternate translation: “and observe that”
כָּל הָֽעַתֻּדִים֙ הָעֹלִ֣ים עַל הַצֹּ֔אן
all/each/any/every the,male_goats the,mating on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in the,flock
See how you translated a similar phrase in verse 10.
עֲקֻדִּ֥ים נְקֻדִּ֖ים וּבְרֻדִּ֑ים
streaked speckled and,mottled
See how you translated this phrase in verses 8 and 10. Alternate translation: “are streaked speckled, or spotted” or “have a streaked speckled, or spotted pattern in their fur”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
כִּ֣י רָאִ֔יתִי
that/for/because/then/when seen
Sometimes an angel says I as God’s representative, but in this context, it seems to be Yahweh himself (in the form of an angel) who is speaking to Jacob (See verse 13). That information could be put in a footnote, and you could make “Yahweh” explicit in the text to make that clear. Alternate translation: “I, Yahweh, have caused that to happen, because I have observed”
אֵ֛ת כָּל אֲשֶׁ֥ר לָבָ֖ן עֹ֥שֶׂה לָּֽךְ
DOM all/each/any/every which/who Lāⱱān producing to,you
Alternate translation: “all the wrong things that Laban has done to you.” or “all the ways that Laban has been treating you badly”
31:1-21 Jacob’s return journey precipitated a confrontation with Laban that set a permanent boundary between Israel (Jacob) and Aram (Laban). God kept his word to Jacob by prospering him in Paddan-aram and protecting him on his journey home.

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.
