uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: writing-politeness

וַ⁠יָּבֹ֧א אֱלֹהִ֛ים אֶל־אֲבִימֶ֖לֶךְ בַּ⁠חֲל֣וֹם

(Some words not found in UHB: and,he_came ʼElohīm to/towards ʼAⱱīmelek in_(the),dream the=night and=he/it_said to=him/it here,you die on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in the=woman which/who taken and,she is_a_~_wife_of man's )

For some languages it is necessary to use an honorific title for a king each time (or most of the time) that he is referred to by name, in order to show him proper respect. Do what is best in your language throughout this chapter. Alternate translation: [But God appeared to King Abimelech in a dream]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / infostructure

הַ⁠לָּ֑יְלָה

(Some words not found in UHB: and,he_came ʼElohīm to/towards ʼAⱱīmelek in_(the),dream the=night and=he/it_said to=him/it here,you die on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in the=woman which/who taken and,she is_a_~_wife_of man's )

It may be more natural to put this time phrase earlier in this sentence and say, “But that night God appeared to King Abimelech in a dream …” Alternate translation: [during the night] or [by night]

וַ⁠יֹּ֣אמֶר ל֗⁠וֹ

(Some words not found in UHB: and,he_came ʼElohīm to/towards ʼAⱱīmelek in_(the),dream the=night and=he/it_said to=him/it here,you die on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in the=woman which/who taken and,she is_a_~_wife_of man's )

Alternate translation: [and told him]

Note 3 topic: translate-tense

הִנְּ⁠ךָ֥ מֵת֙

(Some words not found in UHB: and,he_came ʼElohīm to/towards ʼAⱱīmelek in_(the),dream the=night and=he/it_said to=him/it here,you die on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in the=woman which/who taken and,she is_a_~_wife_of man's )

God is using the present tense to describe something that is going to happen in the future in order to warn that the event could happen soon. If it would be clearer in your language, you could use the future tense. Make sure that the way you translate this clause does not make it sound like King Abimelech is already dead. Alternate translation: [Hear me warn you, you are a dead man]

עַל־הָ⁠אִשָּׁ֣ה אֲשֶׁר־לָקַ֔חְתָּ וְ⁠הִ֖וא

on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in (Some words not found in UHB: and,he_came ʼElohīm to/towards ʼAⱱīmelek in_(the),dream the=night and=he/it_said to=him/it here,you die on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in the=woman which/who taken and,she is_a_~_wife_of man's )

See how you translated took in [verse 2](../20/02.md).
