OET (OET-RV) As soon as the priests carrying the box with Yahweh’s agreement came up out of what had been the Yordan River and their feet stepped onto what had been dry land, the river water returned to its place and overflowed it banks as it had been doing for the previous few days.

(Some words not found in UHB: and=he/it_was in/on/at/with,came_up the,priests carrying_of ark_of covenant_of YHWH from,middle_of the,Jordan lifted_up soles_of feet_of the,priests' to/towards the,dry_ground and,returned waters_of the,Jordan to,place_of,their and,flowing as,yesterday before on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in all/each/any/every banks_of,its )
If your language does not use the passive form in this way, you can state this in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. Alternate translation: “when the priests lifted the soles of their feet up to dry ground”

as,yesterday (Some words not found in UHB: and=he/it_was in/on/at/with,came_up the,priests carrying_of ark_of covenant_of YHWH from,middle_of the,Jordan lifted_up soles_of feet_of the,priests' to/towards the,dry_ground and,returned waters_of the,Jordan to,place_of,their and,flowing as,yesterday before on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in all/each/any/every banks_of,its )
See how you translated the same expression in 3:4. Alternate translation: “as they had done previously”
4:18 After Israel crossed the river, the Jordan overflowed its banks as before. These events could not occur without God’s intervention.

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.
