OET (OET-LV) And_ the_king_of _he/it_said of_the_people_of of_ˊAmmōn to the_messengers_of Yiftāḩ if/because Yisrāʼēl/(Israel) it_took DOM land_of_my when_it_came_up from_Miʦrayim/(Egypt) from_the_ʼArnōn and_unto the_Yaboq/(Jabbok) and_unto the_Yardēn/(Jordan) and_now restore them in_peace.
OET (OET-RV) The Ammonite king responded to Yiftah’s messengers, “Because the Israelis seized my land when they came out of Egypt. It went from the Arnon river up to the Yabbok river, and over to the Yordan river. Now return the land peaceably.”
Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / ellipsis
כִּֽי־לָקַ֨ח יִשְׂרָאֵ֤ל אֶת־אַרְצִי֙
(Some words not found in UHB: and=he/it_said king sons_of ˊAmmōn to/towards messengers_of Yiftāḩ/(Jephthah)'s that/for/because/then/when he/it_had_taken Yisrael DOM land_of,my when,it,came_up from=Miʦrayim/(Egypt) from_[the],Arnon and=unto the,Jabbok and=unto the,Jordan and=now restore, ,them in,peace )
The Ammonite king is leaving out some of the words that in many languages a sentence would need in order to be complete. You can supply these words from the context if that would be clearer in your language. Alternate translation: [I have come against you to fight because Israel took my land]
Note 2 topic: writing-pronouns
אֶתְהֶ֖ן
,them
The Ammonite king is using the plural pronoun them to refer to the areas bounded by the rivers he names. However, since he uses the singular term land to describe this entire territory, it may be more natural in your language to use a singular pronoun. Alternate translation: [it]
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns
בְּשָׁלֽוֹם
(Some words not found in UHB: and=he/it_said king sons_of ˊAmmōn to/towards messengers_of Yiftāḩ/(Jephthah)'s that/for/because/then/when he/it_had_taken Yisrael DOM land_of,my when,it,came_up from=Miʦrayim/(Egypt) from_[the],Arnon and=unto the,Jabbok and=unto the,Jordan and=now restore, ,them in,peace )
If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea of peace, you could express the same idea in another way. Alternate translation: [peacefully]

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.
