OET (OET-RV) And Yahweh will strike Yisrael just like the reeds bend over in the swamps, and he’ll uproot Yisrael from this good soil that he gave to their ancestors and he’ll scatter them beyond the Euphrates, because they made their Asherah statues which provoked Yahweh to anger.

(Some words not found in UHB: and,he_will_strike YHWH DOM Yisrael just=as shaken (the),reed in,water and,he_will_pluck_up DOM Yisrael from=under the=soil (the),good (the),this which/who he/it_gave to,their_of,ancestors and,he,will_scatter_them from_[the],other_side of,River because which/who they_had_acquired DOM poles,their_Asherah provoking_~_to_anger DOM YHWH )
The writer here uses a simile to express how Yahweh will bring judgment on the people of Israel. Alternate translation: “Yahweh will attack the people of Israel as a reed is shaken in the water”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive
as a reed is shaken in the water
(Some words not found in UHB: and,he_will_strike YHWH DOM Yisrael just=as shaken (the),reed in,water and,he_will_pluck_up DOM Yisrael from=under the=soil (the),good (the),this which/who he/it_gave to,their_of,ancestors and,he,will_scatter_them from_[the],other_side of,River because which/who they_had_acquired DOM poles,their_Asherah provoking_~_to_anger DOM YHWH )
If your language does not use the passive form in this way, you can state this in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. Alternate translation: “like a river of water shakes a reed”

(Some words not found in UHB: and,he_will_strike YHWH DOM Yisrael just=as shaken (the),reed in,water and,he_will_pluck_up DOM Yisrael from=under the=soil (the),good (the),this which/who he/it_gave to,their_of,ancestors and,he,will_scatter_them from_[the],other_side of,River because which/who they_had_acquired DOM poles,their_Asherah provoking_~_to_anger DOM YHWH )
Yahweh compares Israel with a plant that he will tear out of the ground by its roots. Alternate translation: “he will remove the people of Israel from this good land”

14:15 Asherah was thought to be the consort of El, the elder god of ancient Canaan. Asherah worship included fertility rites at sacred trees or poles; it became a chronic sin for God’s people (15:13; 16:33; 18:19; Deut 16:21; Judg 3:7).
OET (OET-LV) And_ YHWH _he_will_strike DOM Yisrāʼēl/(Israel) just_as it_sways (the)_reed in_water and_he_will_pluck_up DOM Yisrāʼēl/(Israel) from_under the_soil (the)_good (the)_this which he_gave to_their_of_ancestors and_he_will_scatter_them from_the_other_side of_River because that they_have_made DOM poles_their_ʼAshērāh provoking_to_anger DOM YHWH.
OET (OET-RV) And Yahweh will strike Yisrael just like the reeds bend over in the swamps, and he’ll uproot Yisrael from this good soil that he gave to their ancestors and he’ll scatter them beyond the Euphrates, because they made their Asherah statues which provoked Yahweh to anger.
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.
