OET (OET-LV) And_he/it_sent_out/away_him/it Yahweh god from_the_garden of_ˊĒden to_work DOM the_soil where he_was_taken from_there.
OET (OET-RV) So Yahweh God expelled them out of the garden in Eden to work the soil from which Adam had been taken.
וַֽיְשַׁלְּחֵ֛הוּ יְהוָ֥ה אֱלֹהִ֖ים
and=he/it_sent_out/away=him/it YHWH ʼₑlhīmv
Notice that in verses 22-24, “the man”, him, and he refer to mankind, that is, the man and the woman. Make sure it is clear in your translation here that both of them were sent out of the garden, not just the man. Consider again how you translated Yahweh God in Genesis 2 and 3, and see the note about this at Gen 2:4. Some languages have dual pronouns that are used for “they” and “them” in verses 22-24. Alternate translation: “Then Yahweh God banished the man and his wife” or “So then Yahweh God forced them to leave”
מִגַּן עֵ֑דֶן
from_the=garden ˊĒden
See how you translated this phrase in Gen 2:15. Alternate translation: “the garden in the land of Eden”
לַֽעֲבֹד֙ אֶת הָ֣אֲדָמָ֔ה
to=work DOM the=soil
See how you translated work the ground in Gen 2:5 and “work it” in 2:15. Alternate translation: “to farm the land”
אֲשֶׁ֥ר לֻקַּ֖ח מִשָּֽׁם
which/who he/it_was_taken from=there
It does not refer to the exact ground that he was made from. See how you translated taken from in verse 19. Alternate translation: “which they had been taken from by him” or “which he had taken them from.”
3:23 So the Lord God banished them from the Garden of Eden: Before the Fall, the garden was a sanctuary in which humans could move freely in God’s holy presence. Now their sin required expulsion from that environment. This same principle was behind the laws that restricted an Israelite’s access to God’s presence in the Tabernacle or Temple (e.g., Lev 16:1-2; Num 5:3).

OET (OET-RV) So Yahweh God expelled them out of the garden in Eden to work the soil from which Adam had been taken.
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.
