OET (OET-RV) “For the entire time of their separation to Yahweh, they mustn’t approach any dead body,
Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom
הַזִּיר֖וֹ לַיהוָ֑ה
of,his_being_a_Nazirite to/for=YHWH
The phrase making separate to Yahweh is a common expression of this culture that means “dedicating oneself to Yahweh” or “setting oneself apart for Yahweh.” 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. See how you translated the similar phrase in 6:2. Alternate translation: [him setting himself apart for Yahweh]

Here, Yahweh is speaking of being close to a dead person as if one could literally go upon them. This refers to approaching a dead body. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [he shall not come close to a person having died]

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.
