and=he/it_lived Terah seventy year
Your translation needs to allow for the fact that Terah’s sons were not triplets (just as Noah’s sons were not triplets; see Gen 5:32), rather he started having children after he turned seventy and his sons were born in different years after that. In fact, Abram was not born until Terah was at least 130 years old (11:32, 12:4-5; Acts 7:4), and he was probably Terah’s youngest son. Abram is listed first (instead of Haran or Nahor) probably because of his importance as the one whom Yahweh made His covenant with. Some of this information could be put in a footnote. Alternate translation: “After Terah had lived 70 years,” or “After Terah turned 70 years old,”
וַיּ֨וֹלֶד֙ אֶת אַבְרָ֔ם אֶת נָח֖וֹר וְאֶת הָרָֽן

Alternate translation: “he had sons named Abram, Nahor, and Haran.” or “he fathered sons whose names were Abram, Nahor, and Haran.”
