OET (OET-RV) So Na’aman went down to the Yordan river and dipped in it seven times like the man of God had told him to. Then his skin became clear again, like the skin of a young boy, and he was healed.

וַיָּ֣שָׁב בְּשָׂר֗וֹ כִּבְשַׂ֛ר נַ֥עַר קָטֹ֖ן
(Some words not found in UHB: and=he/it_descended and,he_dipped in,Jordan seven times according,to_the_word_of (a)_man the=ʼElohīm and,it_returned flesh_of,his like_[the],flesh_of boy small and,he_was_clean )
Here the author is speaking of Naaman’s flesh as if it were a living thing that could have returned to him on its own. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [And his flesh became once again like the flesh of a little boy]

וַיָּ֣שָׁב בְּשָׂר֗וֹ כִּבְשַׂ֛ר נַ֥עַר קָטֹ֖ן

The point of this comparison is that just as a young little boy has healthy skin, so Naaman did as well. If it would be helpful in your language, you could make this point explicitly. Alternate translation: [and his skin became healthy again, just like the skin of a little boy]

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.
Acknowledgements: The Hebrew text, lemmas, and morphology are all thanks to the OSHB and some of the glosses are from Macula Hebrew.
