This is an imperative, but it communicates a polite request rather than a command. Use a form in your language that communicates a polite request. It may be helpful to add an expression such as “please” to make this clear. Alternate translation: “Please appoint”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns

צַ֝וֵּ֗ה יְשׁוּע֥וֹת יַעֲקֹֽב

If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea of salvation, you could express the same idea in another way. Alternate translation: “Save Jacob”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / synecdoche

יַעֲקֹֽב

The author is using Jacob to represent the people who live in the country of Israel, which is sometimes called Jacob. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use an equivalent expression from your culture or state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “the people who live in the country of Jacob”
