OET (OET-LV) And_ god _he/it_said to Mosheh I_am that_which I_am and_he/it_said thus you_will_say to_the_people_of Yisrāʼēl/(Israel) I_am he_has_sent_me to_you(pl).

OET (OET-RV) “I AM WHO I AM,” God told Mosheh. “You’ll tell them this: ‘I AM (Yahweh) sent me to you.’ ”

uW Translation Notes:

אֶֽהְיֶ֖ה אֲשֶׁ֣ר אֶֽהְיֶ֑ה

am am (Some words not found in UHB: and=he/it_said ʼElohīm to/towards Mosheh am which/who am and=he/it_said thus say to,the_people_of Yisrael am he,has_sent_me to,you(pl) )

This is God’s response to Moses’ question about God’s name. This can be made explicit. Alternate translation: [God said to Moses, “Tell them that God says his name is ‘I AM WHO I AM.’”]

אֶֽהְיֶ֖ה אֲשֶׁ֣ר אֶֽהְיֶ֑ה

am am (Some words not found in UHB: and=he/it_said ʼElohīm to/towards Mosheh am which/who am and=he/it_said thus say to,the_people_of Yisrael am he,has_sent_me to,you(pl) )

This could mean: (1) this whole sentence is God’s name or (2) God is not telling his name but something about himself. By saying this, God is teaching that he is eternal; he has always lived and always will live.

אֶֽהְיֶ֖ה & אֶֽהְיֶ֑ה & אֶֽהְיֶ֖ה

am & am & am

Languages that do not have an equivalent to the verb “am” may need to render this as “I LIVE” or “I EXIST.”

וַ⁠יֹּ֗אמֶר

(Some words not found in UHB: and=he/it_said ʼElohīm to/towards Mosheh am which/who am and=he/it_said thus say to,the_people_of Yisrael am he,has_sent_me to,you(pl) )

This indicates that God is still speaking. It may make more sense to omit this in some languages.

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / quotesinquotes

אֶֽהְיֶ֖ה שְׁלָחַ֥⁠נִי אֲלֵי⁠כֶֽם

am am (Some words not found in UHB: and=he/it_said ʼElohīm to/towards Mosheh am which/who am and=he/it_said thus say to,the_people_of Yisrael am he,has_sent_me to,you(pl) )

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, as in the UST.

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.
