The author is using the term days to refer to time. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [some time]

(Some words not found in UHB: and=he/it_was from_the=end/extremity days and,it_dried_up the,wadi that/for/because/then/when not it_became rain on_the=earth )
If it would be more natural in your language, you could reverse the order of these phrases, since the second phrase gives the reason for the result that the first phrase describes. Alternate translation: [that because no rain was in the land, the wadi dried up]

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.
