If you have decided to translate this oracle so that it does not contain quotations within a quotation, you can translate the second-level quotation in this verse as an indirect quotation. Alternate translation: “Yahweh declares that he struck you with blight and with mildew and with hail, all of the work of your hands, but it was not you to him”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / ellipsis
אֵ֖ת כָּל־מַעֲשֵׂ֣ה יְדֵיכֶ֑ם
DOM all/each/any/every work hands,your_all's
Yahweh is leaving out some of the words that in many languages a sentence would need in order to be complete. You can supply these words from the context if that would be clearer in your language. Alternate translation: “I struck all of the work of your hands”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / synecdoche
כָּל־מַעֲשֵׂ֣ה יְדֵיכֶ֑ם
all/each/any/every work hands,your_all's
See how you translated the similar expression in 2:14. Alternate translation: “all of the food that you were producing”
Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom
וְאֵין־אֶתְכֶ֥ם אֵלַ֖י
and,not DOM,you_all to=me
Yahweh is using this expression to mean that the Judeans did not obey him and rebuild the temple. Instead, they continued to disobey, as if they had nothing to do with Yahweh. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “but you still did not return to me” or “but it was as if you wanted to have nothing to do with me”
2:17 Return often signifies repentance.
• you refused: The Hebrew people were stubborn and rebellious from the time of Moses (Deut 31:27) to the time of Jesus (Matt 17:17).
• blight and mildew: What happened was the result of disobedience to God’s covenant (see Deut 28:22).

OET (OET-RV) Yahweh declares that he caused blight and mildew and hail to affect your work, but you still didn’t turn to him.
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.
