Note: This view shows ‘verses’ which are not natural language units and hence sometimes only part of a sentence will be visible. Normally the OET discourages the reading of individual ‘verses’, but this view is only designed as a tool for doing comparisons of different translations. Click on any Bible version abbreviation down the left-hand side to see the verse in more of its context. The OET segments on this page are still very early looks into the unfinished texts of the Open English Translation of the Bible. Please double-check these texts in advance before using in public.

2:1-25 Chapter 1 established the need for rescue; ch 2 describes the preparation of Moses, the rescuer. God used the destruction of the Hebrew boy babies to ensure that the rescuer would be trained (see study note on 2:10) for his task.
וַתֵּתַצַּ֥ב אֲחֹת֖וֹ מֵרָחֹ֑ק
and,stood sister_of,his at,distance
This means she stood far enough away so that she would not be noticed, but close enough to see the ark. Use a word that expresses this sort of distance in your language.
Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns
מֵרָחֹ֑ק
at,distance
This probably means somewhere in the reeds where she could see the basket, but no one would see her. If your language does not use an abstract noun for this idea, you can express the idea behind the abstract noun distance in another way. Alternate translation: [not far away]
Note 2 topic: translate-kinship
אֲחֹת֖וֹ
sister_of,his
Here, the actions of his sister show that she was older. If your language uses a different term for siblings based on their relative ages or the gender of the siblings or both, use one that means “a boy’s older sister.”
Note 3 topic: grammar-connect-logic-goal
לְדֵעָ֕ה מַה־יֵּעָשֶׂ֖ה לֽוֹ
to,see what? happen to=him/it
This is her purpose in being close by. Use a natural way in your language for indicating purpose. Alternate translation: [in order to learn what would happen to him]
