⇔ “Let your hands be strong, all you who now hear these words spoken by the prophets who were present when the foundations were laid to rebuild the temple—Commander-in-chief Yahweh’s residence.
Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / synecdoche
תֶּחֱזַ֣קְנָה יְדֵיכֶ֔ם
strong hands_of,your(pl)
Yahweh is using hands to represent the whole person and their courage to work. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use an equivalent expression from your culture or state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [Be strong and courageous]
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
הַשֹּֽׁמְעִים֙ בַּיָּמִ֣ים הָאֵ֔לֶּה אֵ֖ת הַדְּבָרִ֣ים הָאֵ֑לֶּה מִפִּי֙ הַנְּבִיאִ֔ים אֲ֠שֶׁר בְּי֞וֹם יֻסַּ֨ד בֵּית־יְהוָ֧ה צְבָא֛וֹת
O,[you(pl)_who]_hear in_the=days the=these DOM the,words the=these from,the_mouth_of of,the_prophets which/who in/on=day the_foundation_~_laid house_of YHWH armies/messengers
This could mean: (1) the message Zechariah is giving today is almost the same as the message that Haggai (probably) gave when the temple construction started. Alternate translation: [you who are hearing today these same words as were from the mouth of the prophets who stood there on the day the house of Yahweh of Armies was founded] (2) prophets had repeatedly given a similar message ever since temple construction had started, these people had been hearing that. Alternate translation: [you who have kept hearing in these days these words from the mouth of the prophets ever since the day the house of Yahweh of Armies was founded]
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive
יֻסַּ֨ד בֵּית־יְהוָ֧ה צְבָא֛וֹת
the_foundation_~_laid house_of YHWH armies/messengers
The expression was founded 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: [they founded the house of Yahweh of Armies]
Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive
הַהֵיכָ֖ל לְהִבָּנֽוֹת
the,temple to,be_rebuilt
The expression to be built 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: [so that they would build the temple]
Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / synecdoche
מִפִּי֙ הַנְּבִיאִ֔ים
from,the_mouth_of of,the_prophets
Yahweh is using the mouth of the prophets to represent what the prophets said. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use an equivalent expression from your culture or state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [from the prophets]

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.
