וְנִקְחָ֤ה מִשָּׁם֙ אִ֚ישׁ קוֹרָ֣ה אֶחָ֔ת
and,let_us_take (Some words not found in UHB: go please until the,Jordan and,let_us_take from=there (a)_man log one and,let_us_make to/for=ourselves there place to,dwell there and=he/it_said go )
The prophets are using a man one beam as a common expression of their culture to mean that each of them would carry a log from the forest in the Jordan River valley to the site where they wanted to build a new building. If this phrase does not have that meaning in your language, you could use a comparable expression from your language that does have that meaning, or you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [and let each of us carry a log from there]

שָׁ֛ם מָק֖וֹם לָשֶׁ֣בֶת שָׁ֑ם
(Some words not found in UHB: go please until the,Jordan and,let_us_take from=there (a)_man log one and,let_us_make to/for=ourselves there place to,dwell there and=he/it_said go )
It might seem that this expression contains extra information that would not be natural to express in your language. If so, you can shorten it. Alternate translation: [there a place to sit]
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / imperative
לֵֽכוּ
go
This is an imperative, but it communicates permission rather than a command. Use a form in your language that communicates permission. Alternate translation: [You may go]

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.
