OET (OET-LV) And_they_gave to/for_them DOM the_city_of (the)_refuge_of the_killer DOM Shəkem and_DOM lands_of_its_pasture in_the_hill_country_of ʼEfrayim and_DOM Gezer and_DOM lands_of_its_pasture.

OET (OET-RV) Shekem (which was assigned as a refuge city for anyone who accidentally kills someone), Gezer,

SIL Open Translator’s Notes:

Section 21:1–45 The clan of Levi received towns to live in

21:21a

they were given Shechem in the hill country of Ephraim

they were given Shechem: The Hebrew clause that the BSB translates as they were given Shechem is more literally “they gave them Shechem.”

in the hill country of Ephraim: Here are some other ways to translate this part of the verse:

in the mountain country of the clan of Ephraim

in the mountains of Ephraim

21:21b

(a city of refuge for the manslayer),

a city of refuge for the manslayer: This phrase is the same Hebrew phrase as was found in verse 21:13. You should translate this phrase in the same way as you did in that verse.

Here are some other ways to translate this part of the verse:

It was a town where people could run to escape if they had killed someone by accident.

which was a town of safety for anyone who had killed somebody by mistake

21:21c

Gezer,

Gezer: The town of Gezer was mentioned in Joshua 10:33. It was southeast of Joppa.

Here are some other ways to translate this part of the verse:

They also received Gezer and the grazing lands around it

They received the town of Gezer and the grasslands around it

General Comment on verse 21:21

In some languages it may be more natural to reorder the parts of this verse. For example:

They received the town of Shechem and the pasturelands around it, in the hill country of Ephraim. It was a town of safety where anyone who killed somebody accidentally could escape. They also received the town of Gezer and the pasturelands around it.

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / ellipsis

The author is leaving out some of the words that in many languages a sentence would need in order to be complete. You can supply these words from the context if that would be clearer in your language. Alternate translation: [and they gave them Gezer and its pasturelands]
