uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: writing-quotations

כֹּֽה אָמַ֧ר יְהוָ֛ה גֹּאַלְ⁠ךָ֖

thus he/it_had_said YHWH redeemer_of,your

The phrase Thus says Yahweh introduces a direct quotation. In your translation, use a natural way of introducing direct quotations in your language.

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / possession

יְהוָ֛ה גֹּאַלְ⁠ךָ֖

YHWH redeemer_of,your

Yahweh is using this possessive form to mean that he is the one who redeems the people of Israel. It may be helpful to clarify this for your readers. Alternate translation: [Yahweh, the one who redeems you]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / possession

יְהוָ֤ה אֱלֹהֶ֨י⁠ךָ֙

YHWH God_of,your

Yahweh is not using this possessive form your God to indicate that the people of Israel possess or control him. Rather, Yahweh is using these words to indicate that he is the God whom the people of Israel worship. Alternate translation: [am Yahweh, the God whom you worship]

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

מְלַמֶּדְ⁠ךָ֣ לְ⁠הוֹעִ֔יל

[who]_teaches_of,you to,profit

The implication is that Yahweh teaches the people what will be for their own good. You could include this information if that would be helpful to your readers. Alternate translation: [the one teaching you what will benefit you]

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

מַדְרִֽיכֲ⁠ךָ֖ בְּ⁠דֶ֥רֶךְ תֵּלֵֽךְ

[who]_leads_of,you in_[the],way go

Here Yahweh is speaking of the right way to live as if it were a way or road along which he leads the people. Your language may have a comparable expression that you can use in your translation, or you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [the one guiding you in how you should live]
