uW Translation Notes:

וְ⁠עֵינֵ֤י יִשְׂרָאֵל֙ כָּבְד֣וּ

and,the_eyes_of Yisrael dim

Consider whether or not it is natural in your language to use a conjunction (Now) to begin this clause that gives background information about Israel. Also, the word heavy is used here as an idiom that means Israel’s eyesight was getting bad, but he could still see some (as indicated in verses 8 and 11). Many languages have a similar idiom. A translation of verse 10 should not imply that Israel was completely blind. Alternate translation: [Israel had very bad eyesight]

מִ⁠זֹּ֔קֶן

from,old_age

Alternate translation: [because he was very old]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / infostructure

לֹ֥א יוּכַ֖ל לִ⁠רְא֑וֹת

not he/it_would_be_able to=see

For some languages it is more natural to switch the order of the clauses in this sentence and say, “Now Israel was very old, so his eyesight was failing and he was not able to see very well.” Do what is best in your language. Alternate translation: [so that he could not see very well]

Note 3 topic: writing-pronouns

וַ⁠יַּגֵּ֤שׁ אֹתָ⁠ם֙ אֵלָ֔י⁠ו

and,he_brought_near DOM=them to=him/it

Make sure it is clear in your translation whom is being referred to at each point in this sentence. Alternate translation: [So Joseph brought his sons near to his father] or [So he had his sons stand near to his father]

Note 4 topic: writing-pronouns

וַ⁠יִּשַּׁ֥ק לָ⁠הֶ֖ם

and,he_kissed to/for=them

It may be helpful to read this sentence aloud in your translation to make sure the use of nouns and pronouns is natural and accurate in your language. Alternate translation: [and Israel kissed them on the cheeks] or [and his father kissed …]

וַ⁠יְחַבֵּ֥ק לָ⁠הֶֽם

and,he_embraced to/for=them

Consider again how you translated the word embraced in the book of Genesis. See Gen 29:13; 33:4; 48:10. Also compare that to how you translated an idiom (“fell on … neck”) that has a similar meaning in Gen 33:4; 45:14, 46:29. It may be necessary to translate these terms in different ways, depending on the context.

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.

Acknowledgements: The Hebrew text, lemmas, and morphology are all thanks to the OSHB and some of the glosses are from Macula Hebrew.
