וַיֹּ֤אמֶר יְהוָה֙ אֶל־דָּוִ֣ד אָבִ֔י יַ֗עַן אֲשֶׁ֤ר הָיָה֙ עִם־לְבָ֣בְךָ֔ לִבְנ֥וֹת בַּ֖יִת לִשְׁמִ֑י הֱטִיבֹ֔תָ כִּ֥י הָיָ֖ה עִם־לְבָבֶֽךָ
(Some words not found in UHB: and=he/it_said YHWH to/towards Dāvid father_of,my because which/who it_became with heart_of,your to,build house for,name_of,my did_well that/for/because/then/when it_became with heart_of,your )
If it would be clearer in your language, you could translate this so that there is not a quotation within a quotation. Alternate translation: [But Yahweh told David my father that because it was with his heart to build a house for his name, he did well that it was with his heart]
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / explicitinfo
יַ֗עַן אֲשֶׁ֤ר הָיָה֙ עִם־לְבָ֣בְךָ֔ לִבְנ֥וֹת בַּ֖יִת לִשְׁמִ֑י הֱטִיבֹ֔תָ כִּ֥י הָיָ֖ה עִם־לְבָבֶֽךָ
because (Some words not found in UHB: and=he/it_said YHWH to/towards Dāvid father_of,my because which/who it_became with heart_of,your to,build house for,name_of,my did_well that/for/because/then/when it_became with heart_of,your )
It might seem that repeating the expression it was with your heart would be to convey extra information in a way that was not natural in your language. If so, you could shorten represent this expression only once in your translation. Alternate translation: [You did well to have it with your heart to build a house for my name]
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / yousingular
לְבָ֣בְךָ֔ & הֱטִיבֹ֔תָ
heart_of,your & did_well
The words you and your are singular here and in the next verse because they refer to David. So use singular forms in your translation if your language marks that distinction.
OET (OET-LV) And_ YHWH _he/it_said to Dāvid father_of_my because that it_was with heart_of_your to_build a_house for_name_of_my you_did_well (cmp) it_was with heart_of_your.
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.
