and,you_will_say to=him/it thus he/it_had_said YHWH god_of of,the_Hebrews

After and say to him, a second-level quote begins which continues until the end of [9:19](../09/19.md). It may be helpful to your readers to indicate this with an opening second-level quotation mark or with whatever other punctuation or convention your language uses to indicate the beginning of a quotation within a quotation. However, it may be useful to translate this short quote frame as an indirect quotation, as the UST does.

כֹּֽה־אָמַ֤ר יְהוָה֙

thus he/it_had_said YHWH

This quotation formula is used to introduce commands from Yahweh. See [4:intro](../04/intro.md) for more information.
