OET (OET-RV) Then he returned to Sukkot and told them, “Look here at Zebah and Zalmunna—the ones you taunted me about when you asked, ‘Do you already have Zebah and Zalmunna in your grasp that we should give food to your weary men.’ ”
Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / go
וַיָּבֹא֙
and,came
In a context such as this, your language might say “came” instead of went. Alternate translation: “Then he came”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / quotesinquotes
חֵרַפְתֶּ֨ם אוֹתִ֜י לֵאמֹ֗ר הֲ֠כַף זֶ֣בַח וְצַלְמֻנָּ֤ע עַתָּה֙ בְּיָדֶ֔ךָ כִּ֥י נִתֵּ֛ן לַאֲנָשֶׁ֥יךָ הַיְּעֵפִ֖ים לָֽחֶם
taunted DOM,me to=say ?,hands Zeⱱaḩ and,Zalmunna already in/on/at/with,hand,your that/for/because/then/when give to,men,your the,exhausted bread
If it would be clearer in your language, you could translate this so that there is not a quotation within a quotation. Alternate translation: “you taunted me, asking whether the palm of Zebah and Zalmunna was already in my hand, that you should give bread to my weary men!”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / rquestion
הֲ֠כַף זֶ֣בַח וְצַלְמֻנָּ֤ע עַתָּה֙ בְּיָדֶ֔ךָ כִּ֥י נִתֵּ֛ן לַאֲנָשֶׁ֥יךָ הַיְּעֵפִ֖ים לָֽחֶם
?,hands Zeⱱaḩ and,Zalmunna already in/on/at/with,hand,your that/for/because/then/when give to,men,your the,exhausted bread
If you retain the quotation within the quotation, see how you translated this question in 8:6. Alternate translation: “The palm of Zebah and Zalmunna is not now in your hand, that we should give bread to your weary men!”
8:13-17 The return journey was probably a straight course (through the unknown Heres Pass) rather than the circular approach needed for the ambush.
• That a typical young man from Succoth could write down the names is evidence that the newly developed alphabetic writing system had taken root in Israel.
• Gideon’s practice of retribution and execution was the norm in his time, though Gideon’s reputation as the Lord’s servant was better served by his skillful diplomacy (8:1-3) than by vindictive punishment.

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.
