Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns
אֶת־הָרַ֖ע
DOM the,evil
If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea of evil, you could express the same idea in another way. Alternate translation: “what was evil” or “things that were evil”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy
בְּעֵינֵ֣י יְהוָ֑ה
in/on=both_eyes_of YHWH
The author is using the term eyes by association to mean sight. Sight, in turn, represents attention, perspective, and judgment. See the discussion of this usage in the General Introduction to Judges. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “in Yahweh’s judgment”
Note 3 topic: translate-names
אֶת־הַבְּעָלִֽים
DOM DOM the,Baals
The word Baals is the plural of the name Baal. While Baal was generally the name of one particular false god, the word was also used for various other gods that were often worshiped along with Baal. If using the plural name in your translation would not be clear for your readers, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “many false gods”
2:10-19 Joshua was dead, the new generation had not experienced God’s saving power, and the Canaanites continued to live in the land. What resulted was the cycle of rebellion and partial restoration. This section introduces that cycle, which the body of the book exemplifies.

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.
