Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / rquestion
וּמִֽי־הָאִ֞ישׁ אֲשֶׁר־אֵרַ֤שׂ אִשָּׁה֙ וְלֹ֣א לְקָחָ֔הּ יֵלֵ֖ךְ וְיָשֹׁ֣ב לְבֵית֑וֹ
and,who? the=man (Some words not found in UHB: and,who? the=man which/who become_engaged_to woman/wife and=not he,has_taken_her go and,let_him_return to,house_of,his lest die in,battle and,a_man next/another he,will_take_her )
If you decided in the previous verse to translate the question as a statement or as an exclamation, you can continue doing that here. Alternate translation: [Any man who is engaged to a woman and has not taken her should go and return to his house] or [If a man is engaged to a woman and has not taken her, he must return home]

וּמִֽי־הָאִ֞ישׁ אֲשֶׁר־אֵרַ֤שׂ אִשָּׁה֙ וְלֹ֣א לְקָחָ֔הּ יֵלֵ֖ךְ
and,who? the=man (Some words not found in UHB: and,who? the=man which/who become_engaged_to woman/wife and=not he,has_taken_her go and,let_him_return to,house_of,his lest die in,battle and,a_man next/another he,will_take_her )
If you decided in the previous verse to translate this quotation in such a way that there would not be a quotation within a quotation, you can continue doing that here. Alternate translation: [And if there is any man who is engaged to a woman and has not taken her, let him go]
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / genericnoun
וּמִֽי־הָאִ֞ישׁ
and,who? the=man
See how you translated the phrase “who is the man” in the previous verse.
Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / euphemism
וְלֹ֣א לְקָחָ֔הּ
and=not he,has_taken_her
Moses is referring to marriage and the consummation of marriage in a polite way by using the phrase has not taken her. Depending on what is helpful in your language, you could use a polite way of referring to this in your language or you could state this plainly. Alternate translation: [and has not yet married her] or [and has not completed the marriage with her]

See how you translated “lest” in the two previous verses. Alternate translation: [otherwise he may die]
OET (OET-LV) And_who the_man who he_has_betrothed a_woman and_not he_has_taken_her let_him_go and_let_him_return to_house_of_his lest he_should_die in_battle and_a_man another he_will_take_her.
OET (OET-RV) Is there anyone who’s gotten engaged, but not yet married? If so, he can go home in case he died in battle and someone else marries her.”
Note: The OET-RV is still only a first draft, and so far only a few words have been (mostly automatically) matched to the Hebrew or Greek words that they’re translated from.
Acknowledgements: The Hebrew text, lemmas, and morphology are all thanks to the OSHB and some of the glosses are from Macula Hebrew.
