Here, word represents what Rehoboam and his young advisors would say by using words. If it would be clearer in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [What are you advising that we should say in response to]
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / exclusive

(Some words not found in UHB: and=he/it_said to,them what you(pl) advise so,that_we_may_bring_back message DOM the,people the=this which/who said to=me to=say lighten from/more_than the,yoke which/who he/it_gave I_will_show=you(ms) on,us )
By we, Rehoboam means to include both himself and the young men whom he is consulting, so use the inclusive form of that word if your language marks that distinction.
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / quotesinquotes
לֵאמֹ֔ר הָקֵל֙ מִן־הָעֹ֔ל אֲשֶׁר־נָתַ֥ן אָבִ֖יךָ עָלֵֽינוּ
to=say lighten from/more_than the,yoke (Some words not found in UHB: and=he/it_said to,them what you(pl) advise so,that_we_may_bring_back message DOM the,people the=this which/who said to=me to=say lighten from/more_than the,yoke which/who he/it_gave I_will_show=you(ms) on,us )
If it would be clearer in your language, you could translate this so that there is not a quotation within a quotation. Alternate translation: [and asked me to make their yoke lighter now than the yoke that my father put on them]
Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / ellipsis
הָקֵל֙
lighten
The people are leaving out some of the words that in many languages a sentence would need in order to be complete. You can supply these words from the context if that would be clearer in your language. Alternate translation: [Make our yoke lighter now]
Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / exclusive
עָלֵֽינוּ
on,us
The Israelite leaders were using the pronoun us to refer to themselves but not to Rehoboam, so use the exclusive form of that word if your language marks that distinction.
OET (OET-LV) And_he/it_said to_them what are_you(pl) counselling so_that_we_may_bring_back message DOM the_people the_this which they_have_spoken to_me to_say lighten some_of the_yoke which he_put I_will_show_you(ms) on_us.
OET (OET-RV) so he asked them, “What would you all recommend that we tell the people who wanted me to lighten the burden that my father placed on them?”
Note: The OET-RV is still only a first draft, and so far only a few words have been (mostly automatically) matched to the Hebrew or Greek words that they’re translated from.
Acknowledgements: The Hebrew text, lemmas, and morphology are all thanks to the OSHB and some of the glosses are from Macula Hebrew.
