When Yahweh uses the word "you" in this verse, it is singular and refers to Moses. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-you]])
# you have found favor in my eyes

AT: "I am pleased with you" or "I approve of you" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-idiom]] and [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-metonymy]] and [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-metaphor]])
