OET (OET-RV) But Yehudah challenged him, “That man told us that he won’t even see us unless our brother is with us.

Alternate translation: “His son Judah replied,”
הָאִ֤ישׁ

The brothers did not realize yet that Joseph was the governor they had spoken to in Egypt, so Judah referred to him generally here as “the man.” See how you translated a similar phrase in Gen 42:30. Alternate translation: “The man who governs the country there”
הָעֵ֣ד הֵעִד֩ בָּ֨נוּ & לֵאמֹר֙
to_warn he_warned in/on/at/with,us & to=say
Alternate translation: “sternly told us” or “was serious when he warned us”

לֹֽא תִרְא֣וּ פָנַ֔י
not see face,my
Consider whether it is better in your language to translate this embedded quote as a direct or indirect quote. Alternate translation: “that we cannot see him again” or “that we cannot come to him again to buy grain”
Note 3 topic: grammar-connect-exceptions
בִּלְתִּ֖י אֲחִיכֶ֥ם אִתְּכֶֽם
unless brother,your_all's with,you_all
Make sure that the way you translate this clause fits with how you translated the previous part of this sentence. For some languages it is necessary to put this clause before the previous clause and say, “… that our youngest brother must be with us or else we will not be permitted to see him again!” Alternate translation: “unless our youngest brother is with us!”
43:1-7 As the famine continued, Jacob’s family needed more grain, but they could not return to Egypt without Benjamin (42:16, 20). Jacob realized that he was in a bind; he needed more food but was loath to lose Benjamin.

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.
