QUOTE_NOT_FOUND: so that we may burn up evil from Israel
(Some words not found in UHB: and=now hand_over DOM the,men sons_of wicked which/who in/on/at/with,Gibeah and,put_~_todeath,them and,purge evil from,Israel and=not would Binyāmīn to,listen in/on/at/with,voice fellow,their sons_of Yisrael )
The Israelites are speaking of purging their land from the defilement that this evil had caused as if they were going to burn the evil up. If it would be clearer in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [so that we may purge the land Israel from the defilement of this evil]
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy
QUOTE_NOT_FOUND: to listen to the voice of their brothers, the sons of Israel
(Some words not found in UHB: and=now hand_over DOM the,men sons_of wicked which/who in/on/at/with,Gibeah and,put_~_todeath,them and,purge evil from,Israel and=not would Binyāmīn to,listen in/on/at/with,voice fellow,their sons_of Yisrael )
The author is using the term voice by association to mean what the Israelites were saying. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use an equivalent expression or plain language. Alternate translation: [to do what their brothers, the sons of Israel, were telling them to do]
Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor
QUOTE_NOT_FOUND: their brothers, the sons of Israel
(Some words not found in UHB: and=now hand_over DOM the,men sons_of wicked which/who in/on/at/with,Gibeah and,put_~_todeath,them and,purge evil from,Israel and=not would Binyāmīn to,listen in/on/at/with,voice fellow,their sons_of Yisrael )
The author is speaking of the other Israelites as if they were the actual brothers of the Benjaminites. He is using the term to mean descendants of the same ancestor. If it would be clearer in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [their fellow Israelites]
20:12-13 Israel recognized corporate responsibility. The leading citizens of Gibeah were guilty (20:5), and all of Gibeah became an accessory to their crimes by failing to discipline them. The tribe of Benjamin, in turn, had a responsibility to bring Gibeah to justice; failing that, they all shared the guilt. Had Israel not done something about Benjamin’s sin, the guilt would then have extended to the entire nation.

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.
