אִשֶּׁ֛ה לְרֵ֥יחַ נִיחֹ֖חַ לַֽיהוָֽה

Yahweh is using a gift for a scent of pleasing as a common expression of the culture to mean “an offering that is acceptable and pleasing to Yahweh.” If this phrase does not have that meaning for your readers, you could use a comparable expression from your language that does have that meaning, or you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [an offering that is acceptable and pleasing to Yahweh]

אִשֶּׁ֛ה לְרֵ֥יחַ נִיחֹ֖חַ

If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea of pleasing, you could express the same idea in another way. Alternate translation: [a gift of a pleasing scent]

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.
