If it would be clearer in your language, you could translate this so that there is not a quotation within a quotation. Alternate translation: “But the vine asked them whether it should discontinue its new wine, which cheers gods and men, in order to go wave over the trees.”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / rquestion

the,leave DOM wine,my the,cheers ʼElohīm and,men and,go to,sway on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in the,trees

See how you translated the similar question in 9:9. Alternate translation: “I am not going to discontinue my new wine, which cheers gods and men, in order to go wave over the trees!”

Note 3 topic: translate-plural

אֱלֹהִ֖ים

ʼElohīm

The word translated as gods is plural in form, but it could mean either: (1) gods, as in the ULT. (2) God. Alternate translation: “God”
