OET (OET-RV) Then he drove all his livestock and all his property that he had acquired—the livestock in his possession that he had acquired in Paddan Aram—to go back to Isaac his father in the Canaan region.
וַיִּנְהַ֣ג
and,drove_away
Alternate translation: “Then he led” or “Then he started driving”
אֶת כָּל מִקְנֵ֗הוּ וְאֶת כָּל רְכֻשׁוֹ֙ אֲשֶׁ֣ר רָכָ֔שׁ מִקְנֵה֙ קִנְיָנ֔וֹ אֲשֶׁ֥ר רָכַ֖שׁ
DOM all/each/any/every livestock,his and=DOM all/each/any/every property,his which/who acquired livestock possession,his which/who acquired
The word livestock is general here and includes all of Jacob’s animals. Alternate translation: “the camels and all his other livestock and along with them, he also took all the other possessions that he had acquired”
בְּפַדַּ֣ן אֲרָ֑ם
in/on/at/with, אֲרָם
Be consistent here with how you translated “the land/region of Paddan Aram” in Gen 25:20. Alternate translation: “while living in the land of Paddan Aram,”

לָב֛וֹא אֶל יִצְחָ֥ק אָבִ֖יו אַ֥רְצָה כְּנָֽעַן
to,go to/towards Yiʦḩāq/(Isaac) his/its=father towards=land Kenaan
For some languages it is more natural to put this clause earlier in this verse and say, “Then he started driving/herding the camels and all his other animals to/toward the land/region of Canaan where his father Isaac lived. He took with him all his possessions that he had accumulated, including all the livestock that he had acquired/accumulated while living in the land/region of Paddan Aram.” Do what is best in your language. Alternate translation: “to go to Canaan, to the home of his father Isaac.” or “to the land of Canaan, where his father Isaac lived.”
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.
