OET (OET-LV) Then he_is_saying to_the man:
Stretch_out the hand of_you.
And he_stretched_out it, and it_was_restored, healthy as the other.
OET (OET-RV) Then he said to the man, “Stretch out your hand.”
¶ The man stretched his hand out and it was restored—now just as healthy as the other one,
Note 1 topic: translate-tense
λέγει
˱he˲_/is/_saying
To call attention to a development in the story, Matthew uses the present tense in past narration. If it would not be natural to do that in your language, you could use the past tense in your translation. Alternate translation: “he said”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / imperative
ἔκτεινόν σου τὴν χεῖρα.
stretch_out ˱of˲_you the hand
This was not a command that the man was capable of obeying. Instead, this was a command that directly caused the man to be healed. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express the idea more explicitly. Alternate translation: “I heal you. Now stretch out your hand!”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / yousingular
ἔκτεινόν σου τὴν χεῖρα
stretch_out ˱of˲_you the hand
Here, the command and the word your are singular since Jesus is speaking to the man with the withered hand.
Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive
ἀπεκατεστάθη, ὑγιὴς
˱it˲_/was/_restored healthy
If your language does not use this passive form, you could express the idea in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. If you need to say who did the action, it is clear from the context that it was Jesus. Alternate translation: “it became healthy” or “Jesus restored it to health”
Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns
ἀπεκατεστάθη, ὑγιὴς
˱it˲_/was/_restored healthy
If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea of health, you could express the same idea in another way. Alternate translation: “it was made healthy”
Note 6 topic: figures-of-speech / nominaladj
ἡ ἄλλη
the other
Matthew is using the adjective other as a noun to mean the man’s other hand. Your language may use adjectives in the same way. If not, you could translate this word with an equivalent phrase. Alternate translation: “the other hand”
12:1-14 Matthew places Jesus’ offer of rest (11:28-30) in close connection with a discussion of the Sabbath. Jesus’ rest liberates people from human traditions concerning the Sabbath (cp. Heb 4:1-11). The Pharisees rejected Jesus because of their commitment to tradition.

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.
