Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / rpronouns

Here, yourself means that each Israelite should guard against committing these sins.
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / hypo
פֶּן־תִּכְרֹ֤ת בְּרִית֙ לְיוֹשֵׁ֣ב הָאָ֔רֶץ אֲשֶׁ֥ר אַתָּ֖ה בָּ֣א עָלֶ֑יהָ פֶּן־יִהְיֶ֥ה לְמוֹקֵ֖שׁ בְּקִרְבֶּֽךָ
lest make treaty with,inhabitants the=earth/land which/who you(ms) he/it_came on/upon=it(f) lest will_belong as,snare in/on/at/with,midst,you
This sentence contains two hypotheticals as a warning. Each is introduced by lest. Use a marker in your language that introduces a hypothetical situation, but also see the next note. Alternate translation: “If you were to cut a covenant with the inhabitant of the land where you are about to go into, probably he would become as a trap in your midst.”
Note 3 topic: grammar-connect-condition-hypothetical
פֶּן־תִּכְרֹ֤ת בְּרִית֙ לְיוֹשֵׁ֣ב הָאָ֔רֶץ אֲשֶׁ֥ר אַתָּ֖ה בָּ֣א עָלֶ֑יהָ פֶּן־יִהְיֶ֥ה לְמוֹקֵ֖שׁ בְּקִרְבֶּֽךָ
lest make treaty with,inhabitants the=earth/land which/who you(ms) he/it_came on/upon=it(f) lest will_belong as,snare in/on/at/with,midst,you
The second of these hypothetical statements is logically dependent on and follows after the first as a result. As you mark these hypotheticals, use a form that communicates that the second is a result of the first. Alternate translation: “because if you cut a covenant with the inhabitant of the land where you are about to go into, then he will become as a trap in your midst”
Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom
תִּכְרֹ֤ת בְּרִית֙
make treaty
See how you translated this in 34:10.
Note 5 topic: grammar-collectivenouns
לְיוֹשֵׁ֣ב & יִהְיֶ֥ה
with,inhabitants & will_belong
The word inhabitant is a singular noun that refers to any individual inhabitant or group of inhabitants from the peoples mentioned in the previous verse. The pronoun he is agreeing with that singular noun. If your language does not use singular nouns in that way, you can use a different expression. Alternate translation: “with the inhabitants of … they become”
Note 6 topic: figures-of-speech / simile
פֶּן־יִהְיֶ֥ה לְמוֹקֵ֖שׁ בְּקִרְבֶּֽךָ
lest lest will_belong as,snare in/on/at/with,midst,you
People who tempt others to sin are spoken of as if they were a trap. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use an equivalent comparison or express this meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “lest those remaining people tempt you to sin”
34:1-35 God granted Moses’ request (33:18), showed Moses his goodness (34:1-9), and renewed the covenant (34:10-35). This renewal was a unilateral statement by God. God would indeed go with his people, maintaining his covenant promises even though they had broken the covenant (32:1-6) and deserved nothing better than death and abandonment.
OET (OET-LV) Take_heed to/for_yourself(m) lest you_should_make a_covenant with_inhabitants the_earth/land which you [are]_about_to_go on/upon_it(f) lest he_should_become as_snare in/on/at/with_midst_you.
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.
