UST 4-5 Yahweh told Moses to tell the Israelites, “You are very stubborn. If I were to go with you for even a moment, I would kill you. Now take off your fine things to show that you are sorry for sinning. Then I will decide if I will punish you.” When the people heard that Yahweh spoke harshly, they were sorry, and no one wore fancy things.

BSB For the LORD had said to Moses, “Tell the Israelites ‘You are a stiff-necked people. If I should go with you for a single moment, I would destroy you. Now take off your jewelry, and I will decide what to do with you.’ ”

UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / events

וַ⁠יֹּ֨אמֶר יְהוָ֜ה

and=he/it_said YHWH

The word had places Yahweh’s statement back in time. It can be understood from context as Yahweh’s statement to Moses in verse 5 seems to have happened before the people’s reaction in verse 4. If you are reversing the order of the verses for your language, you should adjust the verbal sequencing in your translation.

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / quotations

אֱמֹ֤ר אֶל־בְּנֵֽי־יִשְׂרָאֵל֙

say to/towards sons_of Yisrael

You may want to make the introductory portion of this quotation,Say to the sons of Israel, indirect to keep from having a quote inside a quote. See the UST.

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

קְשֵׁה־עֹ֔רֶף

stiff_of neck

Yahweh speaks of the people being rebellious as if they had hard necks. See how you translated this in [Exodus 32:9](../32/09.md).

Note 4 topic: grammar-connect-condition-hypothetical

רֶ֧גַע אֶחָ֛ד אֶֽעֱלֶ֥ה בְ⁠קִרְבְּ⁠ךָ֖ וְ⁠כִלִּיתִ֑י⁠ךָ וְ⁠עַתָּ֗ה

moment one(ms) go_up in/on/at/with,midst_of,you and,destroy,you and=now

Because the surrounding narrative clearly shows that this is not what Yahweh did or will do, this is a hypothetical situation. Some languages may need to reorder the clauses. Alternate translation: [Since I would destroy if I went up among you for one moment, then]

Note 5 topic: grammar-connect-logic-goal

וְ⁠עַתָּ֗ה הוֹרֵ֤ד עֶדְיְ⁠ךָ֙ מֵֽ⁠עָלֶ֔י⁠ךָ וְ⁠אֵדְעָ֖ה מָ֥ה אֶֽעֱשֶׂה־לָּֽ⁠ךְ

and=now take_off ornaments_of,your from,on,you and,decide what do with,you

The goal of the Israelites removing their ornaments is so that Yahweh can consider his reaction. Some languages may need to reorder this structure. Alternate translation: [So that I will know what I will do to you, take your ornaments down from on you]

Note 6 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

וְ⁠עַתָּ֗ה הוֹרֵ֤ד עֶדְיְ⁠ךָ֙ מֵֽ⁠עָלֶ֔י⁠ךָ

and=now take_off ornaments_of,your from,on,you

This was a way for the Israelites to show that they were sorry for sinning. If it would be helpful to your readers, you could express that explicitly.
