UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / quotesinquotes

וַ⁠יֹּ֥אמֶר יְהוָ֖ה אֵלַ֣⁠י לֵ⁠אמֹ֑ר רָאִ֨יתִי֙ אֶת־הָ⁠עָ֣ם הַ⁠זֶּ֔ה וְ⁠הִנֵּ֥ה עַם־קְשֵׁה־עֹ֖רֶף הֽוּא

and=he/it_said YHWH to=me to=say seen DOM the,people the=this and=see/lo/see! people stiff_of neck he/it

If it would be clearer in your language, you could translate this so that there is not a quotation within a quotation. Alternate translation: “And Yahweh told me that he saw you, and that you are a people stiff of neck”

Note 2 topic: writing-quotations

לֵ⁠אמֹ֑ר

to=say

Here, the word saying introduces direct speech. Consider natural ways of doing that in your own language.

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

רָאִ֨יתִי֙ אֶת־הָ⁠עָ֣ם הַ⁠זֶּ֔ה

seen DOM the,people the=this

The implication is that Yahweh has seen and knows everything that the Israelites do. You could include this information if that would be helpful to your readers. Alternate translation: “I know the actions of this people”

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

וְ⁠הִנֵּ֥ה

and=see/lo/see!

Yahweh is using the term behold to focus Moses’ attention on what he is about to say. Your language may have a comparable expression that you could use in your translation. Alternate translation: “and indeed”

Note 5 topic: writing-pronouns

עַם & הֽוּא

people & he/it

The pronoun it refers to the people of Israel. If it would be more natural in your language, you could use a plural pronoun here. Alternate translation: “this people is”

Note 6 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom

עַם־ קְשֵׁה־ עֹ֖רֶף

people stiff_of neck

Here, stiff of neck is an idiom that means “stubborn” and “rebellious.” The image comes from an animal that does not want to go the way his master is trying to direct him. If this phrase does not have that meaning in your language, you could use an idiom from your language that does have this meaning or state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “is a hard-hearted people” or “is a rebellious people”
