Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor
אֲחֵיהֶ֔ם
brothers_of,their
The author is speaking as if these fellow members of the tribe of Dan were actual brothers of the men who had spied on the land. If it would be clearer in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [fellow tribesmen]
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / ellipsis
מָ֥ה אַתֶּֽם
what you_all
The men are 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: [What did you find]
18:1-31 The migration of the Danites (cp. Josh 19:40-48) is the story of that tribe’s failure to obey God’s covenant, and it is indicative of Israel’s decline. What began as Micah’s private heresy (Judg 17:4-5) would become the apostasy of an entire tribe (18:30-31). What began as covenant failure (1:19-36) turned into social breakdown in the days of Jephthah and Samson (chs 11–16). In the end, law and order were replaced by banditry and pillaging (18:27-28).

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.
Acknowledgements: The Hebrew text, lemmas, and morphology are all thanks to the OSHB and some of the glosses are from Macula Hebrew.
