OET (OET-LV) And_ Yisrāʼēl/(Israel) _it_served DOM YHWH all_of the_days_of Yəhōshūˊa and_all/each/any/every the_days_of the_old_men who days they_made_long after Yəhōshūˊa and_which they_knew DOM all_of the_work_of YHWH which he_had_done for_Yisrāʼēl/(Israel).

OET (OET-RV) The Israelis had served Yahweh all through Yehoshua’s lifetime and throughout the lifetimes of the elders who lived longer than Yehoshua and who had experienced everything that Yahweh had done for Yisrael.

SIL Open Translator’s Notes:

Section 24:1–33: Israel renewed their covenant with Yahweh

In this section Joshua called the people of Israel together to affirm that they would worship and obey only Yahweh. He warned them that Yahweh would bring disaster on them if they worshiped other gods. Then Joshua died and was buried.

Here are some other possible section headings:

Renewing the covenant at Shechem

The Israelites promise to worship only Yahweh

24:31a

Israel had served the LORD throughout the days of Joshua

The Hebrew word that the BSB leaves untranslated but some English versions translate as “and” introduces the next event in the storyline.

Israel served the LORD throughout the days of Joshua: The phrase throughout the days of Joshua indicates all the time that Joshua lived.

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

The people of Israel served Yahweh during Joshua’s lifetime.

As long as Joshua lived, the people of Israel worshiped Yahweh.

24:31b

and of the elders who outlived him

and of the elders who outlived him: The term elders also occurs in Joshua 24:1. You should translate it the same way in both places.

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

and during the lifetimes of the elders who lived longer than Joshua did

They continued to worship Yahweh during the lifetimes of the leaders who still lived after Joshua had died.

24:31c

and who had experienced all the works that the LORD had done for Israel.

and who had experienced all the works that the LORD had done for Israel: The elders had seen how Yahweh helped Israel to leave Egypt and conquer the land of Canaan.

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

Those elders had seen all the mighty acts that Yahweh had done for the people of Israel.

The leaders had experienced all the things that Yahweh had done to help the Israelites.

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy

כֹּ֖ל יְמֵ֣י יְהוֹשֻׁ֑עַ וְ⁠כֹ֣ל ׀ יְמֵ֣י הַ⁠זְּקֵנִ֗ים

(Some words not found in UHB: and,it_served Yisrael DOM YHWH all days_of Yəhōshūˊa/(Joshua) and=all/each/any/every days_of of,the_old_[men] which/who they_outlived days after Yəhōshūˊa/(Joshua) and=which known DOM all/each/any/every work_of YHWH which/who he/it_had_made for,Israel )

The author is using the term days by association to mean specific periods of time, the lifetimes of Joshua and these elders. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [throughout Joshua’s lifetime and throughout the lifetimes of the elders]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom

אֲשֶׁ֨ר הֶאֱרִ֤יכוּ יָמִים֙ אַחֲרֵ֣י יְהוֹשֻׁ֔עַ

(Some words not found in UHB: and,it_served Yisrael DOM YHWH all days_of Yəhōshūˊa/(Joshua) and=all/each/any/every days_of of,the_old_[men] which/who they_outlived days after Yəhōshūˊa/(Joshua) and=which known DOM all/each/any/every work_of YHWH which/who he/it_had_made for,Israel )

The author is using a common expression to mean that these elders remained alive for some time after Joshua died. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [who outlived Joshua]
