OET (OET-RV) but his servants told him, “Listen, we’ve heard that the Israeli kings show mercy. Please let us wrap sackcloth around our waists and go out to Yisrael’s king with ropes on our heads—perhaps he’ll spare your life.”

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns

מַלְכֵ֥י חֶ֖סֶד

kings_of merciful

If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea of mercy, you could express the same idea in another way. Alternate translation: [are merciful kings]

Note 2 topic: translate-symaction

נָשִׂ֣ימָה & שַׂקִּ֨ים בְּ⁠מָתְנֵ֜י⁠נוּ וַ⁠חֲבָלִ֣ים בְּ⁠רֹאשֵׁ֗⁠נוּ

(Some words not found in UHB: and=they_said to=him/it servants_of,his see/lo/see! now heard that/for/because/then/when kings_of house_of Yisrael that/for/because/then/when kings_of merciful they put now sackcloth on,loins_of,our and,ropes on,head_of,our and,let_us_go_out to/towards king Yisrael perhaps spare DOM life_of,your )

Wearing sackcloth was a symbolic action by which Ben Hadad’s officials showed humility before the king of Israel. Putting ropes on their heads was a symbolic action by which they showed that they were willing to become his captives. If it would be helpful to your readers, you could explain the significance of this action in the text of your translation or in a footnote. Alternate translation: [let us put sackcloth on our loins to show humility and ropes on our heads to show that we are willing to become captives]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / synecdoche

יְחַיֶּ֥ה אֶת־נַפְשֶֽׁ⁠ךָ

(Some words not found in UHB: and=they_said to=him/it servants_of,his see/lo/see! now heard that/for/because/then/when kings_of house_of Yisrael that/for/because/then/when kings_of merciful they put now sackcloth on,loins_of,our and,ropes on,head_of,our and,let_us_go_out to/towards king Yisrael perhaps spare DOM life_of,your )

The officials are using one part of Ben Hadad, his soul, to mean all of him in the act of having his life spared. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly here and in the next verse. Alternate translation: [he will let you live]

OET (OET-RV) but his servants told him, “Listen, we’ve heard that the Israeli kings show mercy. Please let us wrap sackcloth around our waists and go out to Yisrael’s king with ropes on our heads—perhaps he’ll spare your life.”

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.
