Moses is using in all the sending out of your hand as a common expression of his culture to mean “in everything that you do” or “in all your activities.” If this phrase does not have that meaning in your language, you could use a comparable expression from your language that does have that meaning, or you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [in all your activities]
