וּמִפְּרִ֣י הָעֵץ֮ אֲשֶׁ֣ר בְּתוֹךְ הַגָּן֒
and=from=fruit the=tree which/who in_the=middle the=garden
For some languages it is necessary to put the exception clause first and say, “No, it is only the tree in the middle of the garden that God said we must/may not eat any fruit from, but the fruit of/from all the rest of the trees in the garden we may eat.” Notice that if you follow this example, you must combine verses 2 and 3 and put the verse numbers “2-3” in front of the combination. Alternate translation: “except fruit from the tree that is in the middle of the garden.” or “except there is one tree that we may not eat fruit from, which is in the center of the garden.”

אָמַ֣ר אֱלֹהִ֗ים לֹ֤א תֹֽאכְלוּ֙ מִמֶּ֔נּוּ
he/it_had_said ʼElohīm not you_all_must_eat from=him/it
Consider whether it is better in your language to translate this embedded quote as a direct or indirect quote. Alternate translation: “God told us to not eat any of that fruit,”
וְלֹ֥א תִגְּע֖וּ בּ֑וֹ
and=not you_all(ms)_will_touch in/on/over=him/it
Alternate translation: “and do not even touch it,”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / quotesinquotes
פֶּן תְּמֻתֽוּן
lest you(pl)_will_die=(emph)
Make sure the way you translate this clause fits with whether you translated the first part of the sentence as a direct (you) or indirect (“we”) quote. Alternate translation: “because if you do eat it or touch it, you will die!” or “because if we do eat it or touch it, we will die!”
3:1-24 The rebellion of the man and the woman shattered their unity and harmony with earth, animals, each other, and God.

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.
