The expression burn the city in fire contains extra information that would be unnatural to express in some languages. If this is true of your language, you could shorten the expression. Alternate translation: “and burn the city”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / infostructure

וְ⁠שָׂרַפְתָּ֨ בָ⁠אֵ֜שׁ אֶת־הָ⁠עִ֤יר וְ⁠אֶת־כָּל־שְׁלָלָ⁠הּ֙ כָּלִ֔יל

If it would be more natural in your language, you could change the order of these clauses so that the objects of the verb burn are clear. Alternate translation: “and compltely burn the city and all its spoil in fire”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

לַ⁠יהוָ֖ה אֱלֹהֶ֑י⁠ךָ

The implication is that burning the spoil would be like burning an offering for Yahweh. You could include this information if that would be helpful to your readers. Alternate translation: “as an offering for Yahweh your God”

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

תֵּ֣ל

The implication is that the city will become a heap of ruins. You could include this information if that would be helpful to your readers. Alternate translation: “a heap of ashes”

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

לֹ֥א תִבָּנֶ֖ה עֽוֹד

If your language does not use the passive form in this way, you can state this in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. Alternate translation: “no one will ever build that city again”
