OET (OET-LV) and_he/it_was in/on/at/with_time give_birth_her and_see/lo/see twins in/on/at/with_womb_her.
וַיְהִ֖י בְּעֵ֣ת לִדְתָּ֑הּ
and=he/it_was in/on/at/with,time give_birth,her
See how you translated Then it happened in verse 24. The same phrase occurs three times in verses 27-29 to draw attention to the peak of this chapter, the birth of Perez, who was the ancestor of King David and the Messiah.
וְהִנֵּ֥ה תְאוֹמִ֖ים בְּבִטְנָֽהּ
and=see/lo/see! twins in/on/at/with,womb,her
Alternate translation: “amazingly there were twins inside her!” or “they saw that there were twins inside her!” or “it turned out that she was going to have twins!”
38:1-30 The story of Judah and Tamar is a carefully placed interlude; it reports what was happening in the family of Judah, who would later rise to prominence, and it shows the beginnings of assimilation with the people of the land to help explain why God sent the family to Egypt (chs 39–47). The Egyptians were strict separatists (43:32); the Israelites would retain their unique identity better in Egypt than in Canaan.

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.
