Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive
וַיֵּ֣אָמַ֔ר לְמֶ֥לֶךְ יְרִיח֖וֹ
and,told to,king Yərīḩō/(Jericho)
If your language does not use the passive form in this way, you can state this in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. If you must state who did the action, the context does not indicate who did it but it can be implied that it was a person. Alternate translation: “And someone said to the king of Jericho”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / gendernotations
מִבְּנֵ֥י יִשְׂרָאֵ֖ל
from=(the)_sons Yisrael
Although the term sons is masculine, the person speaking to the king is using the word here in a generic sense that includes both men and women. The word sons here, refers to both men and women who are descendants of Israel. Alternate translation: “from the descendants of Israel”
2:2 The spies’ speech probably gave them away. Hebrew and Canaanite were both dialects of the same language but with differences in vocabulary and grammar.

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.
