כֹּֽה־אָמַ֤ר יְהוָה֙ אֱלֹהֵ֣י יִשְׂרָאֵ֔ל אָנֹכִ֛י הֶעֱלֵ֥יתִי אֶת־יִשְׂרָאֵ֖ל מִ⁠מִּצְרָ֑יִם וָ⁠אַצִּ֤יל אֶתְ⁠כֶם֙ מִ⁠יַּ֣ד מִצְרַ֔יִם וּ⁠מִ⁠יַּד֙ כָּל־הַ⁠מַּמְלָכ֔וֹת הַ⁠לֹּחֲצִ֖ים אֶתְ⁠כֶֽם

If it would be clearer in your language, you could translate this so that there is not a quotation within a quotation. Alternate translation: [Yahweh, the God of Israel, says that he himself brought you Israelites up from Egypt and that he delivered you from the hand of the Egyptians and from the hand of all the kingdoms oppressing you]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

אָנֹכִ֛י הֶעֱלֵ֥יתִי אֶת־יִשְׂרָאֵ֖ל מִ⁠מִּצְרָ֑יִם וָ⁠אַצִּ֤יל אֶתְ⁠כֶם֙ מִ⁠יַּ֣ד מִצְרַ֔יִם וּ⁠מִ⁠יַּד֙ כָּל־הַ⁠מַּמְלָכ֔וֹת הַ⁠לֹּחֲצִ֖ים אֶתְ⁠כֶֽם

I brought_~_up DOM Yisrael out_of,Egypt and,delivered DOM,you_all from,hand_of from_Miʦrayim/(Miʦrayim/(Egypt))s and,from,hand_of all/each/any/every the,kingdoms the,oppressing DOM,you_all

The author assumes that his readers will understand that Yahweh is giving a reason why the Israelites should have remained loyal to him as their ruler. You could indicate this explicitly in your translation if that would be helpful to your readers. Alternate translation: [I myself brought up Israel from Egypt. And I delivered you from the hand of the Egyptians and from the hand of all of the kingdoms oppressing you. So you ought to have remained loyal to me as your ruler]

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / 123person

יִשְׂרָאֵ֗ל

Yisrael

Yahweh is speaking about the Israelites in the third person. If it would be helpful in your language, you could translate this in the first person. Alternate translation: [you Israelites]

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / yousingular

אֶתְ⁠כֶם֙ & אֶתְ⁠כֶֽם

DOM,you_all & DOM,you_all

The word you is plural here because Yahweh is addressing all of the assembled Israelites. So use plural forms in your translation if your language marks that distinction, here and in the next verse.

Note 6 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy

מִ⁠יַּ֣ד & וּ⁠מִ⁠יַּד֙

from,hand_of & and,from,hand_of

The author is using the term hand by association to mean power and control. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use an equivalent expression or plain language. Alternate translation: [from the power of … and from the power of]
