OET (OET-LV) And_not he_listened the_king of_the_people of_ˊAmmōn to the_words of_Yiftāḩ/(Jephthah) which he_sent to_him/it.
Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
וְלֹ֣א שָׁמַ֔ע & אֶל
and=not listen & to/towards
See how you translated the word “listen” in 11:17. It has the same meaning here. Alternate translation: “But … did not agree not to fight after he heard”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy
דִּבְרֵ֣י יִפְתָּ֔ח אֲשֶׁ֥ר שָׁלַ֖ח אֵלָֽיו
message Yiftāḩ/(Jephthah) which/who Shalah to=him/it
The author is using the term words to represent what Jephthah said by using words. If it would be clearer in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “the message that Jephthah sent to him”
11:12-28 Jephthah initially tried to solve the problem by diplomatic rather than military means (cp. Deut 20:10-11).
• Unlike the nomadic, marauding Midianites of Gideon’s day, the Ammonites were a settled tribe whose territory lay to the east of Israel’s holdings in Transjordan (east of the Jordan); Rabbah was the Ammonite capital. The Ammonites, like the Moabites (both descendants of Lot) and the Edomites (Esau’s descendants), were to be left alone, as their territories were assigned to them by the Lord (Deut 2:16-23).
• Contrary to the Ammonite king’s contention, the Amorites, not Ammon or Moab, lived between the Arnon and Jabbok rivers at the time of the conquest. In response to Sihon’s refusal to let Israel pass, the Lord had given the land of the Amorite kings Sihon and Og to Israel. The Ammonite king had no legitimate quarrel with Israel.

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.
