OET (OET-RV) “Again, call out and say, ‘Commander-in-chief Yahweh says this: My cities will once again overflow with goodness, and I will again comfort Tsiyyon and choose Yerushalem.’ ”
Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy
עָרַ֖י
cities_of,my
Here, My cities represents the people who live in those cities. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use an equivalent expression or plain language. Alternate translation: [The people living in my cities]
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / quotemarks
קְרָ֣א לֵאמֹ֗ר
proclaim to=say
There are three levels of quotation here. The angel of Yahweh is speaking to Zechariah (level 1) and telling him to proclaim a message (level 2), which itself quotes what Yahweh of Armies says (level 3). Use the appropriate punctuation in your language to mark these levels of quotation. Alternatively, you could translate this so that there is not a third-level quotation.
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns
מִטּ֑וֹב
from,good
If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea of goodness, you could express the same idea in another way. Alternate translation: [from good things]

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.
Acknowledgements: The Hebrew text, lemmas, and morphology are all thanks to the OSHB and some of the glosses are from Macula Hebrew.
