אַל־תִּירָא֙ כִּ֣י עִמְּ⁠ךָ־אָ֔נִי אַל־תִּשְׁתָּ֖ע

not fear that/for/because/then/when [am]_with,you I not afraid

Yahweh is saying what he wants Israel to do. See the discussion in the introduction to this book about “let” and “may” and follow the decision of your team of how a speaker will express in this context what he wants someone to do. Alternate translation: [I desire that you do not fear, for I am with you. I desire that you do not look around] or [You should not fear, for I am with you. You should not look around]

Note 2 topic: grammar-connect-logic-result

כִּ֣י

that/for/because/then/when

The word translated as for indicates that what follows is a reason for what came before. Use a connector in your language that makes it clear that what follows is a reason for what came before. Alternate translation: [because]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / possession

אֱלֹהֶ֑י⁠ךָ

God_of,[am]_your

Yahweh is using the possessive form to describe his relationship with Israel as your God, the one they worship. If a speaker of your language would not use the possessive form for this, you could express this idea in another way. Alternate translation: [am the God you worship]

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy

בִּ⁠ימִ֥ין צִדְקִֽ⁠י

with,the_right_hand_of my_righteousness_of,my

Here, the right hand represents “strength” or power. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use an equivalent expression or plain language. Alternate translation: [with my righteous strength]

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns

בִּ⁠ימִ֥ין צִדְקִֽ⁠י

with,the_right_hand_of my_righteousness_of,my

If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea of righteousness, you could express the same idea in another way. Alternate translation: [with my righteous right hand]
