Note 1 topic: writing-quotations
וַתֹּ֣אמֶר אֶל אָבִ֗יהָ
and=she/it_said to/towards father,her
Alternate translation: “Rather Rachel had said to him,”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / honorifics
אַל יִ֨חַר֙ בְּעֵינֵ֣י אֲדֹנִ֔י
not angry in/on=both_eyes_of my=master/master
Make sure you translate my lord in a way that is appropriate for a daughter to show respect to her father; it should not sound like she was Laban’s slave or servant. The word burn is used here as an idiom that means to be angry. Consider whether your language has a similar idiom that would work well here. Also see how you translated this idiom in Gen 30:2. Alternate translation: “Please do not be angry at me, sir” or “Sir please do not be angry at me”
כִּ֣י ל֤וֹא אוּכַל֙ לָק֣וּם מִפָּנֶ֔יךָ
that/for/because/then/when not able to,rise in,presence,you
Alternate translation: “that I am not able to stand up to greet you,”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / euphemism
כִּי דֶ֥רֶךְ נָשִׁ֖ים לִ֑י
that/for/because/then/when way women/wives to=me
Translate this in a way that will not offend or embarrass people when this is read aloud in public. Alternate translation: “because it is that time of the month when I feel weak.” or “because I am having my monthly cycle.”
