בְּיָדָ֜ם
in/on/at/with,hands,their
See how you translated the same expression in 7:6. Alternate translation: “into their hands”
Note 2 topic: writing-pronouns
וְאֵ֣ת שׁוֹפְרֹֽתֵיהֶ֗ם
and=DOM trumpets,their
The pronoun their refers to the soldiers who were leaving the army. It may be helpful to clarify this for your readers. Alternate translation: “and the shofars that the other soldiers had brought”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
וְאֵ֨ת כָּל־אִ֤ישׁ יִשְׂרָאֵל֙
and=DOM all/each/any/every (a)_man Yisrael
The author assumes that readers will understand that by every man of Israel he means the soldiers who had not lapped the water from their hands. You could indicate this explicitly in your translation if that would be helpful to your readers. Alternate translation: “but the soldiers who had not lapped the water from their hands”
Note 4 topic: writing-newevent
וּמַחֲנֵ֣ה מִדְיָ֔ן הָ֥יָה ל֖וֹ מִתַּ֥חַת בָּעֵֽמֶק
and,camp Midyān it_became to=him/it from=under in/on/at/with,valley
The author is introducing a new event in the story. The ULT indicates this with the word Now. Use a word, phrase, or other method in your language that is natural for introducing a new event.
7:8 The jars (in which the men carried provisions) and trumpets borrowed from the warriors who were sent home would be used in the coming battle.

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.
