Note 1 topic: writing-quotations
וַיֹּ֣אמֶר אֲבִימֶ֔לֶךְ
and=he/it_said ʼₐⱱīmelek
Consider what is the best way to translate this quote margin in your language to fit this context.
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / rquestion
מַה זֹּ֖את עָשִׂ֣יתָ לָּ֑נוּ
what? this you(ms)_have_done/made to/for=ourselves
King Abimelech uses a rhetorical question here to show strong emotion and to emphasize that what Isaac did was wrong and should not have been done. Do what is best in your language. Alternate translation: “Why did you treat us this way?” or “You should not have done this to us!”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / euphemism
כִּ֠מְעַט שָׁכַ֞ב אַחַ֤ד הָעָם֙ אֶת אִשְׁתֶּ֔ךָ
as/like,might_well lain_with one the,people DOM your(ms)=woman/wife
See how you translated the idiom “lay with” in Gen 19:32-35. It may be necessary to translate this in slightly different ways, depending on the context. Alternate translation: “Sooner or later, one of the men whom I rule could have slept with your wife,” or “... had physical relations with your wife,” or “... committed adultery with your wife,”
