UTNuW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: writing-newevent

וַ⁠יְהִי֮

and=he/it_was

The author is using this phrase to introduce a new event in the story. Use a word, phrase, or other method in your language that is natural for introducing a new event.

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom

אֶת־פַּר־הַ⁠שּׁוֹר֙

DOM bull the,cattle

This is a common expression that describes a young ox. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. See how you translated the comparable expression “a kid of goats” in 6:19. Alternate translation: [the young ox]

Note 3 topic: translate-ordinal

וּ⁠פַ֥ר הַ⁠שֵּׁנִ֖י שֶׁ֣בַע שָׁנִ֑ים

and,bull the=second seven years

If your language would not use the ordinal number second, you can use a cardinal number here or an equivalent expression. Alternate translation: [and his other bullock, the one that is seven years old]
