OET (OET-LV) And_ the_Rab- _he/it_said shaqeh to master(s)_of_your and_to_you(ms) has_he_sent_me my_master to_speak DOM the_words/messages the_these not to the_men who_are_sitting on the_wall to_eat DOM excrement_of_their_own[fn] and_to_drink DOM their_feet_of_their[fn] with_you(pl).
OET (OET-RV) But the negotiator replied, “Do you think that my master sent me to give this message just to you and your master? Don’t you think that it’s also for the men sitting on the wall who’ll have to join you in eating their own dung and drinking their own urine?”

הַאֶ֨ל אֲדֹנֶ֤יךָ וְאֵלֶ֨יךָ֙ שְׁלָחַ֣נִי אֲדֹנִ֔י לְדַבֵּ֖ר אֶת־הַדְּבָרִ֣ים הָאֵ֑לֶּה הֲלֹ֣א עַל־הָאֲנָשִׁ֗ים הַיֹּֽשְׁבִים֙ עַל־הַ֣חוֹמָ֔ה לֶאֱכֹ֣ל אֶת־חראיהם וְלִשְׁתּ֛וֹת אֶת־שיניהם עִמָּכֶֽם

The Rabshakeh is using the question form for emphasis. If a speaker of your language would not use the question form for that purpose, you could translate this as a statement or as an exclamation. Alternate translation: [My master did not send me to speak these words only to your master and to you! He also sent me to speak them to the men sitting on the wall, who will eat their dung and drink their urine with you!]

Rabshakey is using the term words to represent what his master said by using words. If it would be clearer in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [this message]

?,to master(s)_of,your and=to=you(ms) & (Some words not found in UHB: and=he/it_said great//chief/captain field_commander ?,to master(s)_of,your and=to=you(ms) has,he_sent_me my=master to,speak DOM the,words the=these ?,not on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in the,men [who,are]_sitting on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in the,wall to,eat DOM excrement_of,their_own and,to,drink DOM their_feet_of,their with,you(pl) )
Even though the author says that the Rabshakeh spoke to them, the word your and the word you in its first instance are singular because the Rabshakeh is replying directly to Eliakim, who spoke on behalf of all three Judean officials. The word you in its second instance is plural because the Rabshakeh is including Shebnah and Joah in what he says will happen. Use the appropriate singular and plural forms in your translation if your language marks that distinction.
OET (OET-LV) And_ the_Rab- _he/it_said shaqeh to master(s)_of_your and_to_you(ms) has_he_sent_me my_master to_speak DOM the_words/messages the_these not to the_men who_are_sitting on the_wall to_eat DOM excrement_of_their_own[fn] and_to_drink DOM their_feet_of_their[fn] with_you(pl).
OET (OET-RV) But the negotiator replied, “Do you think that my master sent me to give this message just to you and your master? Don’t you think that it’s also for the men sitting on the wall who’ll have to join you in eating their own dung and drinking their own urine?”
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.
