Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / rquestion
וְאִם־זְר֖וֹעַ כָּאֵ֥ל ׀ לָ֑ךְ וּ֝בְק֗וֹל כָּמֹ֥הוּ תַרְעֵֽם
and=if arm like_THE,God to/for=you(fs) and,in/on/at/with,voice like,his thunder
Yahweh 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 these questions as statements or as exclamations. Alternate translation: “You do not have an arm such as God has! You cannot thunder with a voice as he does!”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / 123person
וְאִם־זְר֖וֹעַ כָּאֵ֥ל ׀ לָ֑ךְ וּ֝בְק֗וֹל כָּמֹ֥הוּ תַרְעֵֽם
and=if arm like_THE,God to/for=you(fs) and,in/on/at/with,voice like,his thunder
God is speaking about himself in the third person. If it would be helpful in your language, you could translate this in the first person. Alternate translation: “Do you have an arm such as I have? Can you thunder with a voice such as I do?” or “You do not have an arm such as I have! You cannot thunder with a voice as I do!”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom
וְאִם־זְר֖וֹעַ כָּאֵ֥ל ׀ לָ֑ךְ
and=if arm like_THE,God to/for=you(fs)
Yahweh is using the word if to introduce a question that anticipates a negative answer. If it would be helpful to your readers, you could indicate this in your translation. Alternate translation: “Now you do not have an arm such as I have, do you”
Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy
וְאִם־זְר֖וֹעַ כָּאֵ֥ל ׀ לָ֑ךְ
and=if arm like_THE,God to/for=you(fs)
Here the arm of God represents his power. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “Now you do not have power such as I have, do you”
Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor
וּ֝בְק֗וֹל כָּמֹ֥הוּ תַרְעֵֽם
and,in/on/at/with,voice like,his thunder
Yahweh is speaking as if his own voice literally made the sound of thunder. He means that his voice is very loud, and that shows how powerful he is. If it would be clearer in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “Or do you have a loud and powerful voice such as I do” or “Or is it evident from the volume of your voice how powerful you are, as it is for me”
