OET (OET-LV) On the_mouth_of YHWH the_people_of they_set_out of_Yisrāʼēl/(Israel) and_on the_mouth_of YHWH they_encamped all_of the_days_of (of)_which it_settled_down the_cloud over the_tabernacle they_encamped.
OET (OET-RV) so in that way, the Israelis would leave a place whenever Yahweh told them, and would set up camp whenever he told them. As long as the cloud stayed above the residence, they would stay camped in that place.

עַל־פִּ֣י יְהוָ֗ה יִסְעוּ֙ בְּנֵ֣י יִשְׂרָאֵ֔ל וְעַל־פִּ֥י יְהוָ֖ה יַחֲנ֑וּ
on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in command_of YHWH set_out sons_of Yisrael and,on command_of YHWH encamped
It might seem that the expression upon the mouth of Yahweh contains extra information that would not be natural to express in your language. If so, you could shorten it. Alternate translation: [Upon the mouth of Yahweh the sons of Israel both set out and camp]
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy
עַל־פִּ֣י יְהוָ֗ה & וְעַל־פִּ֥י יְהוָ֖ה
on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in command_of YHWH & and,on command_of YHWH
Here, mouth represents what Yahweh said or commanded. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use an equivalent expression or plain language. Alternate translation: [When Yahweh tells them to, … and when Yahweh tells them to,]
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
עַל־פִּ֣י יְהוָ֗ה & וְעַל־פִּ֥י יְהוָ֖ה
on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in command_of YHWH & and,on command_of YHWH
The implication is that Yahweh communicated his commands through the movement of the cloud. When it moved or stayed in place, this showed his will for the Israelites’ travel. The phrase upon the mouth of Yahweh refers to Yahweh’s commands or instructions. You could include this information if that would be helpful to your readers. Alternate translation: [Upon the mouth of Yahweh, made known by the cloud, … and upon the mouth of Yahweh, made known by the cloud,]
Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / personification
יִשְׁכֹּ֧ן הֶעָנָ֛ן
stayed the,cloud
The author is speaking of the cloud as if it were a living thing that could live or stay in a place. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. See how you translated the similar words in [9:17](../09/17.md). Alternate translation: [Yahweh has the cloud remain]

OET (OET-RV) so in that way, the Israelis would leave a place whenever Yahweh told them, and would set up camp whenever he told them. As long as the cloud stayed above the residence, they would stay camped in that place.
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.
