OET interlinear DEUT 10:10

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: writing-quotations

וְ⁠אָנֹכִ֞י עָמַ֣דְתִּי בָ⁠הָ֗ר כַּ⁠יָּמִים֙ הָ⁠רִ֣אשֹׁנִ֔ים אַרְבָּעִ֣ים י֔וֹם וְ⁠אַרְבָּעִ֖ים לָ֑יְלָה וַ⁠יִּשְׁמַ֨ע יְהוָ֜ה אֵלַ֗⁠י גַּ֚ם בַּ⁠פַּ֣עַם הַ⁠הִ֔וא לֹא־אָבָ֥ה יְהוָ֖ה הַשְׁחִיתֶֽ⁠ךָ

and,I (Some words not found in UHB: and,I stayed on,mountain like,days (the),former forty day and,forty night and=he/it_listened YHWH to=me also/yet at,time the=that not willing YHWH to,destroy_you )

This verse continues Moses’ speech to the Israelites from verse 5. Consider natural ways of continuing direct quotations in your language, as modeled by the UST.

Note 2 topic: writing-pronouns

וְ⁠אָנֹכִ֞י עָמַ֣דְתִּי

and,I (Some words not found in UHB: and,I stayed on,mountain like,days (the),former forty day and,forty night and=he/it_listened YHWH to=me also/yet at,time the=that not willing YHWH to,destroy_you )

Moses is stating the pronoun I separately, even though the verb translated as I stood already includes this meaning. He is doing that to emphasize that he is the one who stood on the mountain. If a speaker of your language would use an explicit pronoun for the same purpose, you may want to use that construction in your translation. If not, your language may have other ways of showing the meaning here. Alternate translation: [And indeed I stood] or [And I myself stood]

וְ⁠אָנֹכִ֞י עָמַ֣דְתִּי

and,I (Some words not found in UHB: and,I stayed on,mountain like,days (the),former forty day and,forty night and=he/it_listened YHWH to=me also/yet at,time the=that not willing YHWH to,destroy_you )

Alternate translation: [And I remained]

Note 3 topic: translate-ordinal

כַּ⁠יָּמִים֙ הָ⁠רִ֣אשֹׁנִ֔ים

(Some words not found in UHB: and,I stayed on,mountain like,days (the),former forty day and,forty night and=he/it_listened YHWH to=me also/yet at,time the=that not willing YHWH to,destroy_you )

If your language would not represent a number in a form such as the first, you could represent this in a form that your language would use. Alternate translation: [as the previous time]

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy

כַּ⁠יָּמִים֙ הָ⁠רִ֣אשֹׁנִ֔ים

(Some words not found in UHB: and,I stayed on,mountain like,days (the),former forty day and,forty night and=he/it_listened YHWH to=me also/yet at,time the=that not willing YHWH to,destroy_you )

Here the word days refers to a specific period of time. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [as the first period of time]

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

וַ⁠יִּשְׁמַ֨ע יְהוָ֜ה אֵלַ֗⁠י גַּ֚ם בַּ⁠פַּ֣עַם הַ⁠הִ֔וא

(Some words not found in UHB: and,I stayed on,mountain like,days (the),former forty day and,forty night and=he/it_listened YHWH to=me also/yet at,time the=that not willing YHWH to,destroy_you )

The implication is that Yahweh listened to Moses’ request to not destroy the Israelites, just like Yahweh he did in 9:19. See how you translated the similar phrase, “Yahweh listened to me also that time,” in that verse. Alternate translation: [And I interceded on your behalf, and Yahweh listened to me at that time also]

Note 6 topic: figures-of-speech / youcrowd

הַשְׁחִיתֶֽ⁠ךָ

(Some words not found in UHB: and,I stayed on,mountain like,days (the),former forty day and,forty night and=he/it_listened YHWH to=me also/yet at,time the=that not willing YHWH to,destroy_you )

Even though Moses is speaking to all the Israelites, you is singular here. If the singular form of these pronoun would not be natural in your language, you could use the plural form in your translation.
