Note 1 topic: writing-quotations
הִנֵּ֣ה
see/lo/see!
This is the beginning of what Yahweh said. If it would be helpful to your readers, you could mark that this is a direct quote of Yahweh.
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor
סַף־רַ֛עַל לְכָל־הָעַמִּ֖ים סָבִ֑יב
cup_of reeling to/from=all/each/any/every the,peoples surrounding
Here Yahweh is speaking of Jerusalem as if it were a cup of staggering, that is, a cup of wine that would make the surrounding nations drunk so that they reel and cannot stand. Your language may have a comparable expression that you can use in your translation, or you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [a source of helpless reeling for all of the peoples all around]
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
וְגַ֧ם עַל־יְהוּדָ֛ה יִֽהְיֶ֥ה בַמָּצ֖וֹר עַל־יְרוּשָׁלִָֽם

This could mean: (1) Judah and Jerusalem are besieged. Alternate translation: [And just as Jerusalem is besieged, so is all of Judah.] (2) Judah is going to besiege Jerusalem. Alternate translation: [Judah joins the nations to besiege Jerusalem.]

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.
