Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / ellipsis

Elijah is leaving out some of the words that in many languages a sentence would need in order to be complete. You can supply these words from the context if that would be clearer in your language. Alternate translation: [send messengers and gather]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / hyperbole

אֶת־כָּל־יִשְׂרָאֵ֖ל

DOM (Some words not found in UHB: and=now send assemble to=me DOM all/each/any/every Yisrael to/towards mount_of of_(the),Carmel and=DOM prophets_of of_(the),Baal four hundreds and,fifty and,the_prophets_of of_(the),Asherah four hundreds eat_of table_of ʼĪzeⱱel/(Jezebel)'s )

Elijah is saying all Israel as a generalization for emphasis. If it would be clearer in your language, you could express the emphasis in a different way. Alternate translation: [representatives from throughout Israel]

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy

אֹכְלֵ֖י שֻׁלְחַ֥ן אִיזָֽבֶל

eat_of (Some words not found in UHB: and=now send assemble to=me DOM all/each/any/every Yisrael to/towards mount_of of_(the),Carmel and=DOM prophets_of of_(the),Baal four hundreds and,fifty and,the_prophets_of of_(the),Asherah four hundreds eat_of table_of ʼĪzeⱱel/(Jezebel)'s )

Here, eaters at the table of Jezebel represents prophets whom Jezebel supported. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use an equivalent expression or plain language. Alternate translation: [whom Jezebel supports] or [for whom Jezebel provides from the royal treasury]
