OET (OET-RV)So his uncles working on his behalf, passed that onto all the citizens of Shekem, and they became convinced in Abimelek, because they said, “He’s our brother.”

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy

בְּ⁠אָזְנֵי֙

in,the_ears_of

See how you translated the same expression in the previous verse. Alternate translation: [in the hearing of] or [out loud to]

Note 2 topic: grammar-connect-logic-result

וַ⁠יֵּ֤ט לִבָּ⁠ם֙ אַחֲרֵ֣י אֲבִימֶ֔לֶךְ כִּ֥י אָמְר֖וּ אָחִ֥י⁠נוּ הֽוּא

and,it_turned_aside heart_of,their after ʼAⱱīmelek that/for/because/then/when said brother_of,[is]_our he/it

If it would be more natural in your language, you could reverse the order of these phrases, since the second phrase gives the reason for the result that the first phrase describes. Alternate translation: [and when they considered, “He is our brother,” their heart turned after Abimelech]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

וַ⁠יֵּ֤ט לִבָּ⁠ם֙ אַחֲרֵ֣י אֲבִימֶ֔לֶךְ

and,it_turned_aside heart_of,their after ʼAⱱīmelek

Here the heart represents the will and inclinations. If it would be clearer in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [and they decided to make Abimelech their king]

Note 4 topic: grammar-collectivenouns

לִבָּ⁠ם֙

heart_of,their

Since the author is referring to a group of people, it might be more natural in your language to use the plural form of heart. Alternate translation: [their hearts]

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

אָחִ֥י⁠נוּ הֽוּא

brother_of,[is]_our he/it

The lords of Shechem are using the term brother to mean someone descended from the same ancestor. They do not mean that Abimelech is their literal brother, a child of the same parents. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [He is our kinsman]

Note 6 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

אָחִ֥י⁠נוּ הֽוּא

brother_of,[is]_our he/it

The lords of Shechem mean implicitly that they expect Abimelech to treat them better than the other sons of Gideon would because he is their relative, while the other sons are not. You could indicate this explicitly in your translation if that would be helpful to your readers. Alternate translation: [He is our kinsman, so he will treat us well]

Note 7 topic: figures-of-speech / quotations

אָחִ֥י⁠נוּ הֽוּא

brother_of,[is]_our he/it

It may be more natural in your language to have an indirect quotation here. The UST models one way to do that.

TSN Tyndale Study Notes:

9:1-57 The reign of Abimelech was the turning point between the comparative rest of the early period of judges (3:7–8:35) and the decline of the later years (10:1–16:31).
