OET (OET-LV)And_he/it_made to_him/it ʼĒhūd a_sword and_with_her two mouths [was]_a_cubit length_her and_fastened DOM_it from_under on_clothes_his on the_thigh right_his.

OET (OET-RV)Now Ehud had made himself a double-edged sword—a short one about half a metre long—and he strapped it to his right thigh beneath his clothes.

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / personification

וְ⁠לָ֛⁠הּ שְׁנֵ֥י פֵי֖וֹת

and,with,her two_of edges

The author is speaking of Ehud’s sword as if it had been a living thing that had a mouth and could eat. This is probably a reference to the way a sword cuts into a person as if it were an animal biting him. Since the author speaks of the sword having two mouths, in this context the word mouths probably refers to the edges of the sword. Alternate translation: “it was double-edged”

Note 2 topic: translate-bdistance

גֹּ֣מֶד אָרְכָּ֑⁠הּ

cubit length,her

The word translated as cubit describes the distance from a typical person’s elbow to the knuckles of his clenched fist. If it would be helpful to your readers, you could express this distance in terms of modern measurements. Alternate translation: “it was about half a meter long” or “it was about eighteen inches long”

TSN Tyndale Study Notes:

3:16 A knife for cutting would have a single blade. This doubled-edged dagger was fashioned to facilitate driving it into a victim.

OET (OET-RV)Now Ehud had made himself a double-edged sword—a short one about half a metre long—and he strapped it to his right thigh beneath his clothes.

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.
