OET (OET-LV) Or two_days or a_month or days when_made_long the_cloud over the_tabernacle to_dwell on/upon/above_him/it the_people_of they_encamped of_Yisrāʼēl/(Israel) and_not they_set_out and_when_it_was_taken_up they_set_out.
OET (OET-RV) Whether it was two days or a month or a year that the cloud stayed above the residence, then the Israeli camp would remain in that place, until eventually moving on when it was lifted up again.
Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
אֽוֹ־יֹמַ֜יִם אוֹ־חֹ֣דֶשׁ אוֹ־יָמִ֗ים
whether days or month or days
The phrase two days or a month or days presents different lengths of time in order to emphasize that the length of time could vary. The author lists specific time periods as examples and ends with the general term “days” to indicate that these are just examples of possible lengths of time. If it would be clearer in your language, you could make explicit that these are examples and that other lengths of time were also possible. Alternate translation: [Whatever length of time, whether two days or a month or days]
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom
יֹמַ֜יִם
days
The author is using the expression days as a common expression of this culture to mean “a year.” 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: [one year]
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / personification
בְּהַאֲרִ֨יךְ הֶעָנָ֤ן עַל־הַמִּשְׁכָּן֙ לִשְׁכֹּ֣ן
when,made_long the,cloud on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in the,tabernacle to,dwell
The author is speaking of the cloud as if it were a living thing that could prolong its stay and dwell in a place. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. See how you translated the similar clause in [9:19](../09/19.md). Alternate translation: [when Yahweh has the cloud remain upon the Dwelling to dwell]
Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive
וּבְהֵעָלֹת֖וֹ
and,when,it,was_taken_up
The expression is taken up is a passive verbal form. If your language would not use that 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 does the action, the context indicates that it is God. See how you translated the similar form in [9:17](../09/17.md). Alternate translation: [And when Yahweh takes it up]
OET (OET-LV) Or two_days or a_month or days when_made_long the_cloud over the_tabernacle to_dwell on/upon/above_him/it the_people_of they_encamped of_Yisrāʼēl/(Israel) and_not they_set_out and_when_it_was_taken_up they_set_out.
OET (OET-RV) Whether it was two days or a month or a year that the cloud stayed above the residence, then the Israeli camp would remain in that place, until eventually moving on when it was lifted up again.
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.
