וְעֹ֥שֶׂה חֶ֖סֶד לַאֲלָפִ֑ים לְאֹהֲבַ֖י
and,showing steadfast_love to,thousands of,love,me
If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea of faithfulness, you can express the same idea in another way. Alternate translation: “I am faithful to the covenant with thousands of those who love me”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / ellipsis
לַאֲלָפִ֑ים
to,thousands
Alternate translation: “Generation” is implied by the previous verse. If it would be helpful in your language, you could supply necessary words from the context. Alternate translation: “to the thousandth generation” or “for a thousand generations”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy
לַאֲלָפִ֑ים לְאֹהֲבַ֖י
to,thousands of,love,me
Here, thousands may mean: (1) “forever,” that is, “to all descendants forever” (2) a number too many to count. Alternate translation: “for every generation” or “forever to innumerable people who love me”
20:1-17 The brief statement of the terms of the covenant (see also Deut 5:6-21).

Note: The OET-RV is still only a first draft, and so far only a few words have been (mostly automatically) matched to the Greek words that they’re translated from.
