Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / synecdoche
שִׁבְעַ֣ת הַיָּמִ֔ים אֲשֶׁר הָיָ֥ה לָהֶ֖ם הַמִּשְׁתֶּ֑ה
seven_of the=days which/who it_became to/for=them the,feast
Since the author says in 14:15 that it was only on the “seventh day” of the feast that the Philistine young men came to Samson’s bride and threatened her, he is apparently using the whole period here, seven days, to represent the time that remained in that period. Alternate translation: [for the remainder of the seven days during which they held their feast]
Note 2 topic: writing-newevent
וַיְהִ֣י
and=he/it_was
The author is using this phrase to introduce a new development in the story. Use a word, phrase, or other method in your language that is natural for introducing a new event.
Note 3 topic: grammar-connect-logic-result
וַיַּגֶּד לָהּ֙ כִּ֣י הֱצִיקַ֔תְהוּ
and,told to/for=her/it that/for/because/then/when nagged,him
If it would be more natural in your language, you could reverse the order of these phrases, since the second phrase gives the reason for the result that the first phrase describes. Alternate translation: [that, because she had pressed him, he declared it to her]
14:14-19 Israel’s hero, like Sisera, was defeated by a woman (4:21; see study note on 8:20-21).

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.
