OET (OET-LV)And_he/it_said Mosheh to the_ʼElohīm here I [am]_about_to_go to the_people of_Yisrāʼēl/(Israel) and_say to/for_them the_god fathers_your_all’s sent_me to_you_all and_ask to_me what name_his what will_I_say to_them.

OET (OET-RV)But listen,” Mosheh told God, “If I’m about to go to the Israelis and if I told them, ‘The God of your ancestors has sent me to you.’ then they’d ask me, ‘Oh yeah, what’s his name?’ then what would I tell them?”

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: grammar-connect-condition-hypothetical

הִנֵּ֨ה אָנֹכִ֣י בָא֮ אֶל־בְּנֵ֣י יִשְׂרָאֵל֒ וְ⁠אָמַרְתִּ֣י לָ⁠הֶ֔ם אֱלֹהֵ֥י אֲבוֹתֵי⁠כֶ֖ם שְׁלָחַ֣⁠נִי אֲלֵי⁠כֶ֑ם וְ⁠אָֽמְרוּ־לִ֣⁠י מַה־שְּׁמ֔⁠וֹ

see/lo/see! I go to/towards sons_of Yisrael and,say to/for=them god fathers,your_all's sent,me to,you_all and,ask to=me what? name,his

Moses presents God with a hypothetical situation here. The three events (go … say to them … say to me) are part of one hypothetical event. You should translate this in a way that makes it clear that this is a future, not-yet-real event.

הִנֵּ֨ה

see/lo/see!

Behold is a term meant to focus the attention of the listener on what the speaker is about to say. In this case, Moses uses it to introduce what he views as a probable future occurrence. Alternative translation: “Now”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / go

בָא֮

go

In your language, use go or “come” as makes most sense for Moses’ hypothetical action of going from the mountain to where the Israelites are.

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / quotesinquotes

אֱלֹהֵ֥י אֲבוֹתֵי⁠כֶ֖ם שְׁלָחַ֣⁠נִי אֲלֵי⁠כֶ֑ם

god fathers,your_all's sent,me to,you_all

This is a second-level quotation. It may be helpful to your readers to indicate this by marking it with second-level quotation marks or with whatever other punctuation or convention your language uses to indicate a quotation inside a quotation. However, you may also choose to translate it as an indirect quotation. Alternate translation: “that the God of their fathers has sent me to them”

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy

אֱלֹהֵ֥י אֲבוֹתֵי⁠כֶ֖ם

god fathers,your_all's

Here, fathers means “ancestors.” If it would be helpful in your language, you could use an equivalent expression from your language or state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “The God of your ancestors” or “The God whom your ancestors worshiped”

Note 5 topic: grammar-connect-condition-hypothetical

מָ֥ה אֹמַ֖ר אֲלֵ⁠הֶֽם

what say to,them

Moses is asking God what he should do as a result of the hypothetical situation he presented (see earlier note). Use a natural form in your language for introducing a situation that could happen. Alternate translation: “If that happens, what should I say to them”

TSN Tyndale Study Notes:

3:13-22 Moses’ second protest was that he had inadequate knowledge. He did not know God’s name. This might mean that God’s personal name had not yet been revealed (see study notes on 6:2-3). It is also possible that Moses meant he did not know the secret, magic formula that a man of power might have been expected to make use of. Interest in such things was common in the ancient Near East. God’s direct response is almost a riddle, but the majority of his answer is a statement of his faithfulness in the past and a demonstration of his knowledge of the future. There is nothing magical about the name Yahweh. Knowledge of secret formulas and magic powers is not the issue; the issue is the character of God and his lordship of history. The reason there is “something about that name” is because of the incomparable character and nature of the one who bears it.
