OET (OET-LV) And_appeared to_him/it the_angel[fn][fn][fn] of_YHWH and_he/it_said to_him/it YHWH with_you Oh_mighty_[man] the_mighty.

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / 123person
יְהוָ֥ה עִמְּךָ֖
YHWH with,you
Verses 14 and 16 identify this angel as Yahweh himself. So here Yahweh is actually speaking about himself in the third person. However, Gideon does not yet know that Yahweh is appearing to him in the form of this angel. So it would be appropriate to leave this statement in the third person.
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns
גִּבּ֥וֹר הֶחָֽיִל
mighty the,mighty
If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea of valor, you could express the same idea in another way. Alternate translation: “valiant warrior”
6:12 Mighty hero translates a Hebrew term that is elsewhere translated as “strong warriors” (Josh 6:2), pointing to Gideon’s potential military heroism, and as “the rich” (2 Kgs 15:20), pointing to his social standing as a member of a leading family.
• the Lord is with you: A commission to fight God’s war is usually accompanied by assurance of his presence (see Deut 1:30; Josh 1:1-9).
