Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy
יַד־יְהוָה֙ הָיְתָה־בָּ֣ם
hand YHWH she/it_was in/on/at/with,them
Here, hand represents the power of a person. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use an equivalent expression or state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “Yahweh used his power against them”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / hendiadys
כַּֽאֲשֶׁר֙ דִּבֶּ֣ר יְהוָ֔ה וְכַאֲשֶׁ֛ר נִשְׁבַּ֥ע יְהוָ֖ה לָהֶ֑ם
as/like,just_as he/it_had_said YHWH and=as=which sworn YHWH to/for=them
This phrase expresses a single idea by using two expressions connected with and. The word sworn tells in what way Yahweh spoke. Alternate translation: “as Yahweh had said solemnly that he would do”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor
וַיֵּ֥צֶר לָהֶ֖ם מְאֹֽד
and,distressed to/for=them very
The author is speaking as if the Israelites were literally brought into a place where they had very little room on either side of them. If it would be clearer in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “And they were in great distress”
