UTN uW Translation Notes:

וְ֠⁠עַתָּה אִם יֶשְׁ⁠כֶ֨ם

and=now if are_going_to,you_all

Throughout this verse “you” is plural. Alternate translation: “So now if you are willing”

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

עֹשִׂ֜ים חֶ֧סֶד וֶֽ⁠אֱמֶ֛ת אֶת אֲדֹנִ֖⁠י

deal loyally and,truly DOM my=master/master

See how you translated kindness and faithfulness in verse 27. If necessary in your translation, you can make it explicit how they would show kindness and faithfulness to Abraham. Alternate translation: “to let her come with me, and in that way show your kindness and faithfulness to my master,” or “to be kind and faithful to my master by sending her with me,”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / infostructure

הַגִּ֣ידוּ לִ֑⁠י וְ⁠אִם לֹ֕א הַגִּ֣ידוּ לִ֔⁠י

tell to=me and=if not tell to=me

It may be clearer or more natural to put this information near the beginning of the sentence and say, “So now, please tell me whether or not you are willing to let her come with me, and in that way show your kindness and faithfulness to my master,” or “So now, please tell me whether or not you are willing to be kind and faithful to my master by letting her come with me,” Do what is best in your language. Alternate translation: “please tell me, or if you are not willing, tell me,”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom

וְ⁠אֶפְנֶ֥ה עַל יָמִ֖ין א֥וֹ עַל שְׂמֹֽאל

and,turn on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in right_hand or on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in left

Consider whether your language has the same idiom that Hebrew has here, or a similar idiom, with the same meaning, or whether you need to say this without an idiom. Alternate translation: “so that I can know which way to turn” or “so that I can know what to do next.”
