אָבִ֞י הִשְׁבִּיעַ֣נִי לֵאמֹ֗ר הִנֵּ֣ה אָנֹכִי֮ מֵת֒ בְּקִבְרִ֗י אֲשֶׁ֨ר כָּרִ֤יתִי לִי֙ בְּאֶ֣רֶץ כְּנַ֔עַן שָׁ֖מָּה תִּקְבְּרֵ֑נִי

For some languages it may be better to translate this embedded quote as an indirect quote and say, “that when my father was about to die, he had me swear/vow/promise to him that I would bury his body in the region of Canaan, in a grave/tomb that he had prepared for himself there.” Do what is best in your language.

וְעַתָּ֗ה אֶֽעֱלֶה נָּ֛א וְאֶקְבְּרָ֥ה אֶת אָבִ֖י

Consider whether or not it is better in your language to translate this embedded quote as an indirect quote. Also see how you translated go up in Gen 45:9.
וְאָשֽׁוּבָה
and,return
Consider whether or not it is better in your language to begin a new sentence here. Alternate translation: “After I have done that, I will return to Egypt.”

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.
