Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / infostructure
וְעַתָּ֗ה לְכָ֛ה נִכְרְתָ֥ה בְרִ֖ית אֲנִ֣י וָאָ֑תָּה
and=now come, make covenant I and,you
For some languages it may be more natural to put I and you earlier in the sentence. Do what is best in your language. Also see how you translated So now in verse 16 and cut a covenant in Gen 26:28. Alternate translation: “So then, you and I should make a peace covenant with each other,” or “So I invite you to make a covenant with me,”
וְהָיָ֥ה
and=it_was
The subject of the Hebrew verb in this phrase is masculine singular, so it cannot refer to “covenant,” which is feminine singular. It is probably best to translate this phrase in a general way. Alternate translation: “and let there be”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / exclusive
לְעֵ֖ד בֵּינִ֥י וּבֵינֶֽךָ
as,witness between,me and,between,you
If your language has a dual pronoun for us, you could use it in this verse. Also, if your language distinguishes exclusive and inclusive pronouns, you could use the inclusive form of us here. Alternate translation: “a memorial to remind us of our covenant” or “something to remind us to keep that covenant”
