uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / quotesinquotes

אוּלַ֡י יִשְׁמַע֩ יְהוָ֨ה אֱלֹהֶ֜י⁠ךָ

it_may_be_that hear YHWH God_of,your

If you decided in the previous verse to translate this quotation in such a way that there would not be a quotation within a quotation, you can continue doing that here. In many languages it will not be necessary to make significant alterations. Alternate translation: [Hezekiah says that perhaps Yahweh your God will have heard]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy

אֵ֣ת דִּבְרֵ֣י רַב־שָׁקֵ֗ה

DOM words_of great//chief/captain field_commander

Isaiah is using the term words to represent what Rahshakeh said by using words. If it would be clearer in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [everything that the Rabshakeh said]

Note 3 topic: writing-pronouns

וְ⁠הוֹכִ֨יחַ֙ בַּ⁠דְּבָרִ֔ים אֲשֶׁ֥ר שָׁמַ֖ע יְהוָ֣ה אֱלֹהֶ֑י⁠ךָ

and,he_will_rebuke (in),words which/who heard YHWH God_of,your

Since the author has already used the name Yahweh earlier in this sentence, it may be more natural in your language to use a pronoun here. Alternate translation: [and he will chastise the words that he has heard]

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy

וְ⁠הוֹכִ֨יחַ֙ בַּ⁠דְּבָרִ֔ים אֲשֶׁ֥ר שָׁמַ֖ע יְהוָ֣ה אֱלֹהֶ֑י⁠ךָ

and,he_will_rebuke (in),words which/who heard YHWH God_of,your

The messengers are using the words that the Rabshakeh spoke to represent the Rabshakeh himself. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use an equivalent expression or plain language. Alternate translation: [and he will chastise him for what he heard him say]

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

וְ⁠נָשָׂ֣אתָ תְפִלָּ֔ה

and,you_will_lift_up prayer

The messengers are speaking as if a prayer were something that Isaiah could physically lift up. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [And may you say a prayer]

Note 6 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom

הַ⁠שְּׁאֵרִ֖ית הַ⁠נִּמְצָאָֽה

the,remnant [which,is]_found

Isaiah is using the remnant that is found as a common expression of the culture to mean “those who remain alive.” If this phrase does not have that meaning for your readers, you could use a comparable expression from your language that does have that meaning, or you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [the remnant of Judeans who still survive]
