OET (OET-LV) If it_will_go_up the_people the_this for_doing sacrifices in_house_of YHWH in/on/at/with_Yərūshālam/(Jerusalem) and_return the_heart_of the_people the_this to master_of_their to Rəḩaⱱˊām the_king_of Yəhūdāh and_kill_me and_return to Rəḩaⱱˊām the_king_of Yəhūdāh.
OET (OET-RV) He worried that if the people went down to Yerushalem to offer sacrifices in Yahweh’s temple, they might shift their allegiance to King Rehavam in Yehudah and then his life might be in danger.
If these people go up
(Some words not found in UHB: if it_will_ascend the,people the=this for=doing sacrifices in=house_of YHWH in/on/at/with,Jerusalem and,return heart_of the,people the=this to/towards lord_of,their to/towards Rəḩaⱱˊām king Yehuda and,kill,me and,return to/towards Rəḩaⱱˊām king Yehuda )
The words “these people” refer to the people of the northern ten tribes of Israel.
Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy
the heart of these people
(Some words not found in UHB: if it_will_ascend the,people the=this for=doing sacrifices in=house_of YHWH in/on/at/with,Jerusalem and,return heart_of the,people the=this to/towards lord_of,their to/towards Rəḩaⱱˊām king Yehuda and,kill,me and,return to/towards Rəḩaⱱˊām king Yehuda )
“Heart” here is a metonym for the people’s allegiance and affection. Alternate translation: “the allegiance of these people”

turn again to their master, to Rehoboam king of Judah … return to Rehoboam king of Judah
(Some words not found in UHB: if it_will_ascend the,people the=this for=doing sacrifices in=house_of YHWH in/on/at/with,Jerusalem and,return heart_of the,people the=this to/towards lord_of,their to/towards Rəḩaⱱˊām king Yehuda and,kill,me and,return to/towards Rəḩaⱱˊām king Yehuda )
These phrases mean basically the same thing and are combined to emphasize Jeroboam’s fear that the people would turn again to Rehoboam as king.
12:25-33 Jeroboam’s actions in establishing his kingdom are reported in two sections, one on his building activities (12:25), the other on his false shrines and religious practices (12:26-33).

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.
