OET (OET-RV) Then his sister approached and asked the princess, “Would you like me to go and find a Ivri woman who’ll be able to breastfeed the baby for you?”
וְקָרָ֤אתִי לָךְ֙ אִשָּׁ֣ה מֵינֶ֔קֶת מִ֖ן הָעִבְרִיֹּ֑ת
and,will_I_call? to/for=you(fs) (Some words not found in UHB: and=she/it_said sister_of,his to/towards daughter_of Parˊoh's will,I_go? and,will_I_call? to/for=you(fs) woman/wife who_is_nursing from/more_than the_Hebrew,[women] so,that_she_may_suckle to/for=you(fs) DOM the,child )
This is a suggestive question. The child’s sister is hopeful that Pharaoh’s daughter does not yet have a plan for the baby beyond saving his life. However, it is still a true question, for without Pharaoh’s daughter’s permission, the child’s sister will not be able to fetch the woman. If your language has a way of forming questions that are also suggestions, use it here.
מֵינֶ֔קֶת & וְתֵינִ֥ק
who_is_nursing & so,that_she_may_suckle
Here, nursing or to nurse means to feed with milk from the breast.

so,that_she_may_suckle to/for=you(fs) DOM (Some words not found in UHB: and=she/it_said sister_of,his to/towards daughter_of Parˊoh's will,I_go? and,will_I_call? to/for=you(fs) woman/wife who_is_nursing from/more_than the_Hebrew,[women] so,that_she_may_suckle to/for=you(fs) DOM the,child )
This is the purpose of the sister’s proposal. Use a natural way in your language for indicating purpose. Alternate translation: [And she could nurse the infant for you]
