OET-LV Which those_of_who_buy_them they_will_kill_them and_not they_will_be_held_guilty and_those_of_who_sell_them he_will_say YHWH be_blessed and_I_will_gain_riches and_shepherds_of_their not he_will_have_compassion on_them.
OET (OET-RV) The ones who buy them, slaughter them and aren’t punished, and the ones who sell them say, ‘Blessed be Yahweh. I’ve become rich.’ because the shepherds working for the flocks’ owners have no pity on them.
Note 1 topic: writing-background
אֲשֶׁ֨ר קֹנֵיהֶ֤ן יַֽהֲרְגֻן֙ וְלֹ֣א יֶאְשָׁ֔מוּ וּמֹכְרֵיהֶ֣ן יֹאמַ֔ר
which/who [those_of,who]_buy_them they,will_kill_them and=not punished and,[those_of,who]_sell_them say
Here Yahweh is providing background information to help readers understand what happens next. In your translation, introduce this information in a way that would be natural in your own language and culture.
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive
וְלֹ֣א יֶאְשָׁ֔מוּ
and=not (Some words not found in UHB: which/who [those_of,who]_buy_them they,will_kill_them and=not punished and,[those_of,who]_sell_them say blessed YHWH and,I_will_gain_riches and,shepherds_of,their not have_~_pity on,them )
The expression are not held guilty is a passive verbal form. If it would be unnatural to use that form, you could express the idea in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. Alternate translation: [and no one considers them guilty]

יֹאמַ֔ר בָּר֥וּךְ יְהוָ֖ה וַאעְשִׁ֑ר
say blessed YHWH and,I_will_gain_riches
If it would be clearer in your language, you could translate this so that there is not a quotation within a quotation. Alternate translation: [say that Yahweh has blessed them, for they have become rich!]

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.
