If it would be more natural in your language, you could reverse the order of these phrases, since the second phrase gives the reason for the result that the first phrase describes. Alternate translation: [Then, because one did not open, Menahem struck Tiphsah and all who were in it and its borders, from Tirzah]

If it would be more natural in your language, you may want to put the information that Menahem began this military campaign from Tirzah at the beginning of the sentence. Alternate translation: [Then from Tirzah Menahem struck Tiphsah and all who were in it and its borders]

Note 5 topic: writing-pronouns
לֹ֥א פָתַ֖ח

Note 6 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy
לֹ֥א פָתַ֖ח
not open
The author is using the action of not opening the city gates for Menahem to represent refusing to accept him as king. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use an equivalent expression or plain language. Alternate translation: [the people of the city refused to accept him as their king]

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.
