Debian Packets fix - locale not working - cant install packets - Librarys broken

I did something horrible and hopefully didnt destroy my Debian 9 Strech... I googled like 2 Hours to fix this but nothing has helped...

What I Did: my ClamAV was outdated, and I added a testing source into /etc/apt/sources.list manually and typed "apt-get install clamav" into terminal, now some Libs are Broken... Moreover I deleted the testing source again and tried to restore the state, but not successfully. The Command suggested to use "apt --fix-broken install" and I did.

Now it seems that my locale is completely gone and some librarys too: Everytime I try to upgrade / Install something I get this:

Another Error message I get when I use "sudo apt-get install --reinstall libc-bin"

Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable distribution that some required packages have not yet been created or been moved out of Incoming. The following information may help to resolve the situation:

(Sorry for this horrible quote of the commandline I wanted to post a Image, but I dont have enough reputations yet. I posted a link where you can find a better readable version.)

I tried to fix this by using these commands:

sudo locale-gen "en_US.UTF-8"` -> locale-gen: command not found

update-locale LANG=de_DE.UTF-8 -> update-locale: command not found

I also tried to follow this instruction:https://itsfoss.com/fix-exec-locale-file-directory/

Didn´t help either.

Im so frustrated, cause I have no backup I can restore. Thanks for your help
