OET (OET-LV) And_he/it_said god to ʼAⱱrāhām and_you(ms) DOM covenant_my you_will_keep you and_offspring_your after_you throughout_generations_their.
OET (OET-RV) Then God told Abraham, “For your part,, you and your descendants after you throughout all their generations must follow the requirements of our agreement.
וַיֹּ֤אמֶר אֱלֹהִים֙ אֶל אַבְרָהָ֔ם
and=he/it_said ʼElohīm to/towards ʼAⱱrāhām
Some languages leave out this quote margin, because God is still speaking to the same person. See what you did for similar cases in Gen 16:10-11.
וְאַתָּ֖ה
and=you(ms)
In the Hebrew text, the pronoun you is emphatic both in form and in sentence position to shift the focus from talking about God’s part in the covenant (verses 4-8) to talking about Abraham’s part. Translate this phrase in a way that shows this change in focus. Alternate translation: “As for you,” or “Now as for your part in my covenant” or “Your responsibility in my agreement is that”
אֶת בְּרִיתִ֣י תִשְׁמֹ֑ר
DOM covenant,my keep
Alternate translation: “you must keep the requirements of my agreement,”
אַתָּ֛ה וְזַרְעֲךָ֥
you(ms) and,offspring,your
For some languages it is better to begin a new sentence here. Do what is best in your language. Alternate translation: “both you and” or “That includes you and”
וְזַרְעֲךָ֥ אַֽחֲרֶ֖יךָ
and,offspring,your after,you
Alternate translation: “all your descendants who live after you” or “all your offspring”
לְדֹרֹתָֽם
throughout,generations,their
See how you translated this phrase in verse 7, and a similar phrase in verse 8. Alternate translation: “including all generations to come.” or “for all future generations.”
17:1-27 God now gave the family signs that the promises would be fulfilled. He changed Abram’s name to Abraham (17:1-8), instituted the rite of circumcision as the sign of the covenant (17:9-14, 23-27), and changed Sarai’s name to Sarah (17:15-22).

OET (OET-RV) Then God told Abraham, “For your part,, you and your descendants after you throughout all their generations must follow the requirements of our agreement.
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.
