OET (OET-RV) The local Canaanite people saw the mourning at Atad’s threshing floor, and they said, “This is very serious mourning for the Egyptians.” That’s why they then named that place across the Jordan ‘Abel Mizraim’ (which means ‘the Egyptians mourned here’).
וַיַּ֡רְא יוֹשֵׁב֩ הָאָ֨רֶץ הַֽכְּנַעֲנִ֜י אֶת־הָאֵ֗בֶל בְּגֹ֨רֶן֙ הָֽאָטָ֔ד
and=he/it_saw inhabitants_of the=earth/land the,Canaanites DOM the,mourning in/on/at/with,threshing_floor_of Atad
See how you translated threshing floor of Atad in verse 10.
אֵֽבֶל־כָּבֵ֥ד זֶ֖ה לְמִצְרָ֑יִם
mourning grievous this on,Egyptians
Consider again how you translated “Egyptian” in the book of Genesis. See Gen 12:14; 16:1, 3; 21:9; 25:12; 39:1, 2, 5; 41:55-56; 43:32; 45:2; 46:34; 47:15, 20; 50:3, 11. It may be necessary to translate this term in different ways, depending on the context. Alternate translation: “Wow! Those people of Egypt are mourning very sorrowfully for someone who died!”
עַל־כֵּ֞ן
on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in yes/correct/thus/so
Alternate translation: “That is the reason that”
קָרָ֤א שְׁמָהּ֙
he/it_called his/its=name
Consider again how you translated “For that (reason) he/they called/call …” in the book of Genesis. See Gen 11:9; 16:14; 19:22; 21:31; 25:26, 30; 31:48; 33:17; 35:8; 38:29-30; 50:11. Alternate translation: “people call that place” or “the name of that place is” or “that place is called”
אֲשֶׁ֖ר בְּעֵ֥בֶר
which/who in/on/at/with,to_of
Consider whether or not it is better in your language to begin a new sentence here. Alternate translation: “which is located” or “The place is”
Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / infostructure
בְּעֵ֥בֶר הַיַּרְדֵּֽן
in/on/at/with,to_of the,Jordan
For some languages it may be clearer or more natural to put this phrase earlier in this sentence and say, “That is why the name of that place on the other side of the Jordan River is Abel Mizraim, which means “Egyptians’ mourning place.”” Do what is best in your language. Also, be consistent here with how you translate this phrase in verse 10.
50:10-13 This journey into Canaan was made in sorrow to bury a man; the next journey into the land would be to live there.

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.
