OET (OET-RV) I’m your god Yahweh, who rescued you[fn] from where you were enslaved in Mitsrayim (Egypt).
20:2 Although modern English doesn’t easily distinguish it, this discourse is addressed to singular ‘you’, i.e., to the Israelis as one group. While some of our modern, individualistic cultures might naturally interpret these rules as applying to individuals, they were given to Yisrael/Israel to implement at a national level.

(Some words not found in UHB: I YHWH God_of,your which/who I,brought_you_out from,the_land_of Miʦrayim/(Egypt) from,a_house_of slavery )
Yahweh speaks of Egypt as if it were a house where people keep slaves. See how you translated this in Exodus 13:3. If your readers would not understand what this image means in this context, you could use an equivalent metaphor from your culture. Alternatively, you could express the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [from the place where you were slaves]

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.
