See how you translated similar time phrases in verses 4, 5, and 13.
הָאָֽרֶץ
the=earth/land
Notice that the land/ground was dry here, not the entire earth. Consider again how you translated this phrase in verses 3, 7, 11, 13-14. Alternate translation: “the ground”
יָבְשָׁ֖ה
dry
In this context dry means that the ground was dry enough to walk on and live on without getting stuck in mud. Make sure your translation does not imply that it was so dry that nothing would grow on it (like a desert).
8:14 the earth was dry! This special word for dry land is uniquely used in connection with the sea to portray God’s sovereignty over both domains (see 1:9-10; Exod 14:22, 29; Ps 95:5; Jon 1:9).

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.
