OET (OET-LV) And_sent the_one_who was_over the_palace and_which was_over the_city and_the_elders and_the_guardians to Yēhūʼ your_servants to_say we and_all/each/any/every that you_will_say to_us we_will_do not we_will_make_king anyone the_good in/on/at/with_eyes_of_you do.
OET (OET-RV) Then the man who was now in charge of the household and leading the city elders sent a message to Yehu, “We are your servants and we’ll do whatever you tell us to. We don’t plan to select a king. Do whatever you think best.”
(Occurrence 0) the man who was over the city
(Some words not found in UHB: and,sent which/who on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in the,palace and=which on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in the=city and,the,elders and,the,guardians to/towards Yēhūʼ/(Jehu) to=say your=servants we and=all/each/any/every which/who say to,us do not make_~_king (a)_man the,good in/on/at/with,eyes_of,you make/work/create/deal )
Here to be “over” something means to have authority and responsibility over it. Alternate translation: “the man who was in charge of the city”
Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
(Occurrence 0) they who raised the children
(Some words not found in UHB: and,sent which/who on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in the,palace and=which on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in the=city and,the,elders and,the,guardians to/towards Yēhūʼ/(Jehu) to=say your=servants we and=all/each/any/every which/who say to,us do not make_~_king (a)_man the,good in/on/at/with,eyes_of,you make/work/create/deal )
This refers to the people who raised the king’s children. Alternate translation: “they who raised the king’s children”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor
(Occurrence 0) Do what is good in your eyes
(Some words not found in UHB: and,sent which/who on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in the,palace and=which on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in the=city and,the,elders and,the,guardians to/towards Yēhūʼ/(Jehu) to=say your=servants we and=all/each/any/every which/who say to,us do not make_~_king (a)_man the,good in/on/at/with,eyes_of,you make/work/create/deal )
Here Jehu’s “eyes” refer to his “sight.” His “sight” refers to what he thinks. Alternate translation: “Do what you judge to be right” or “Do whatever you think is the best”
10:1-27 The writer focuses on two important events of Jehu’s reign: his murder of all who might claim Joram’s throne (10:1-17), and his execution of the priests of Baal (10:18-27).

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.
Acknowledgements: The Hebrew text, lemmas, and morphology are all thanks to the OSHB and some of the glosses are from Macula Hebrew.
