OET (OET-LV) Bel He_has_bowed_down Nəⱱō is_stooping_low idols_of_their they_belong to_animal[s] and_to_cattle burdens_of_your(pl) are_carried a_load for_a_weary_animal.
OET (OET-RV) The Babylonian gods Bel bows down and Nevo stoops low.

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / parallelism
כָּרַ֥ע בֵּל֙ קֹרֵ֣ס נְב֔וֹ
bows_down Bel stoops Nəⱱō
These two clauses mean basically the same thing. The second emphasizes the meaning of the first by repeating the same idea with different words. If it would be helpful to your readers, you could combine them and express the emphasis in another way. Alternate translation: [Bel and Nebo both bow low]
Note 2 topic: translate-names
בֵּל֙ & נְב֔וֹ
Bel & Nəⱱō
The words Bel and Nebo are the names of Babylonian gods.
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
הָיוּ֙ עֲצַבֵּיהֶ֔ם לַחַיָּ֖ה וְלַבְּהֵמָ֑ה
they_were idols_of,their to,animal[s] and,to,cattle
The implication is that the images of these gods are being loaded onto the pack animals to be carried away into captivity. You could include this information if that would be helpful to your readers. Alternate translation: [their images are loaded onto animals and beasts]
Note 4 topic: writing-pronouns
נְשֻׂאֹתֵיכֶ֣ם עֲמוּס֔וֹת
burdens_of,your(pl) burdensome
The pronoun your refers to the people of Babylon, whose idols these are. It may be helpful to clarify this for your readers. Alternate translation: [Babylon’s carried things are loaded]
Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive
נְשֻׂאֹתֵיכֶ֣ם עֲמוּס֔וֹת
burdens_of,your(pl) burdensome
The expression loaded is a passive verbal form. If it would be unnatural to use that form, you could express the idea in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. Alternate translation: [they have loaded your carried things]
Note 6 topic: figures-of-speech / nominaladj
לַעֲיֵפָֽה
for,a_weary_[animal]
Isaiah is using the adjective weary as a noun to mean a certain kind of animal. Your language may use adjectives in the same way. If not, you can translate this adjective with an equivalent phrase. Alternate translation: [to those who are weary]
OET (OET-LV) Bel He_has_bowed_down Nəⱱō is_stooping_low idols_of_their they_belong to_animal[s] and_to_cattle burdens_of_your(pl) are_carried a_load for_a_weary_animal.

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.
