OET (OET-LV) And_he/it_saw master_his if/because_that Yahweh with_him/it and_all/each/any/every that he [was]_doing Yahweh [was]_making_successful in_his/its_hand.
OET (OET-RV) His master noticed that Yahweh was with him and that Yahweh made everything that he did succeed,
וַיַּ֣רְא אֲדֹנָ֔יו כִּ֥י יְהוָ֖ה אִתּ֑וֹ
and=he/it_saw master,his that/for/because/then/when YHWH with=him/it
In verses 2 through 20, Potiphar is referred to as Joseph’s master (verses 2-3, 7-8, 16, 19-20) and “the Egyptian” (verse 5); he is no longer mentioned by his name in the Hebrew text. Some translations continue to use Potiphar’s name occasionally in verses 2 through 20 to prevent confusion and make it clear that all of these references refer to the same person, not two or three different people. Do what is best in your language. See how you translated master or “owner” in Gen 24:9-10.
וְכֹל֙ אֲשֶׁר ה֣וּא עֹשֶׂ֔ה יְהוָ֖ה מַצְלִ֥יחַ בְּיָדֽוֹ
and=all/each/any/every which/who he/it producing YHWH prosper in=his/its=hand
See how you translated successful in verse 2. Alternate translation: “and was helping Joseph to prosper in everything that he did.” or “and was helping Joseph to do everything very well.”
39:1–47:31 Joseph began as a slave, alienated from his brothers and separated from his father; he ended as Pharaoh’s viceroy. Through the trips to Egypt, the covenant family went from the brink of apostasy, divided by jealousy and deception, to being reconciled and united by Judah’s intercession and Joseph’s forgiveness.
39:1-23 Joseph’s integrity in Potiphar’s service contrasts with Judah’s moral failure (ch 38). God was with Joseph (39:2-3, 21, 23) and enabled him to prosper and be a blessing (see study notes on 12:1-9; 28:16-22) despite his slavery and imprisonment.

Note: The OET-RV is still only a first draft, and so far only a few words have been (mostly automatically) matched to the Greek words that they’re translated from.
