(Occurrence 0) fell on his sword
(Some words not found in UHB: and=he/it_saw lifting/taking his_armor(s)_of,his that/for/because/then/when dead Shāʼūl/(Saul) and,he_fell also/yet he/it on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in the=drought//sword/knife and=he/it_died )
He probably stuck the handle into the ground and leaned on the point so the sword would go through his body as he fell down. The action is a metonym for the result, death. See how you translated this in 1 Chronicles 10:4. Alternate translation: [killed himself with his sword]

Note: The OET-RV is still only a first draft, and so far only a few words have been (mostly automatically) matched to the Hebrew or Greek words that they’re translated from.
