I've been looking for something just like this, thanks! It seems to work pretty well.

Mozilla has a kinda low key translation extension, too. https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/firefox-translations/

Firefox 118 (Beta at least?) also now has translation enabled I think, and it's offloine (Vergamont). It only supports some random languages though. It does support Spanish, but not Russian or Chinese or most languges.

This extension has Bergamot built in which is local translation. You do have to change the settings though, since it defaults to Google. It also has Yandex translate which I believe is online.

whats interesting is I think the yandex translate used in the yandex browser is offline, I could be wrong though.
