הָל֞וֹךְ וְדִבַּרְתָּ֣ אֶל־דָּוִ֗ד כֹּ֚ה אָמַ֣ר יְהוָ֔ה שָׁלֹ֕שׁ אָנֹכִ֖י נוֹטֵ֣ל עָלֶ֑יךָ בְּחַר־לְךָ֥ אַֽחַת־מֵהֶ֖ם וְאֶֽעֱשֶׂה־לָּֽךְ
go (Some words not found in UHB: go and,you_will_speak to/towards Dāvid thus he/it_had_said YHWH three I offering on,you choose to/for=yourself(m) one from=them and,I_will_do_[it] to,you )
There are three levels of quotation here. Yahweh is speaking (level 1) and quoting what he wants Gad to say (level 2), which is that he, Yahweh, has a message for David. Yahweh then presents this message to David as a direct quotation (level 3). Use the appropriate punctuation in your language to mark these levels of quotation. Alternatively, you could translate this so that there are not second-level and third-level quotations (see the Quotes within Quotes note).

If it would be clearer in your language, you could translate this so that there is not a quotation within a quotation. Alternate translation: [Go and tell David that I say that I am lifting three over him and that he is to choose one from them for himself and I will do it to him]

Yahweh is using the adjective Three as a noun to mean three things or options. Your language may use adjectives in the same way. If not, you can translate this adjective with an equivalent phrase. Alternate translation: [Three things]
Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor
אָנֹכִ֖י נוֹטֵ֣ל עָלֶ֑יךָ
I offering on,you
Yahweh is speaking of the three choices of punishment as if they were objects he could lift and hold over David. This is a metaphor that indicates that Yahweh is presenting these choices to David and has authority over how they will be carried out. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [I am laying out for you] or [I am presenting for you to consider]
OET (OET-LV) Go and_you_will_speak to Dāvid thus YHWH he_says three_things I am_laying on_you choose to/for_yourself(m) one from_them and_I_will_do_it to_you.
OET (OET-RV) to take to David, “I, Yahweh, am offering you three choices. You decide which one I should carry out against you.”
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.
