וָ⁠אֶשָּׂ֥א אֶת־עֵינַ֖⁠י

(vā⁠ʼessāʼ ʼet-ˊēyna⁠y)

Zechariah is using And I lifted up my eyes as a common expression of the culture to mean “I looked” or “I directed my attention.” 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: [And I looked up] or [And I directed my gaze upward]

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.

Acknowledgements: The Hebrew text, lemmas, and morphology are all thanks to the OSHB and some of the glosses are from Macula Hebrew.
