OET (OET-RV) So he sent a captain with his fifty soldiers to look for Eliyah and they found him sitting on the top of a hill. The captain called out, “Man of God, the king wants to see you.”

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / ellipsis

שַׂר־חֲמִשִּׁ֖ים וַ⁠חֲמִשָּׁ֑י⁠ו

(Some words not found in UHB: and,he_sent to=him/it chief fifty and,his_fifty_of,[men] and=he/it_ascended to=him/it and=see/lo/see! was_sitting on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in head of,the_hill and=he/it_spoke to=him/it (a)_man the=ʼElohīm the=king he/it_had_said come,down )

The author 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: [a captain of fifty men and his fifty men]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

שַׂר־חֲמִשִּׁ֖ים וַ⁠חֲמִשָּׁ֑י⁠ו

(Some words not found in UHB: and,he_sent to=him/it chief fifty and,his_fifty_of,[men] and=he/it_ascended to=him/it and=see/lo/see! was_sitting on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in head of,the_hill and=he/it_spoke to=him/it (a)_man the=ʼElohīm the=king he/it_had_said come,down )

In ancient warfare, officers were often described by the number of troops that were generally under their command. However, the actual number could vary. There were not necessarily exactly fifty soldiers who accompanied this captain of fifty on this occasion as he went to capture Elijah. You may be able to state this in more general terms, using an equivalent expression from your language and culture. Alternate translation: [a platoon leader and his soldiers]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

וְ⁠הִנֵּה֙

(Some words not found in UHB: and,he_sent to=him/it chief fifty and,his_fifty_of,[men] and=he/it_ascended to=him/it and=see/lo/see! was_sitting on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in head of,the_hill and=he/it_spoke to=him/it (a)_man the=ʼElohīm the=king he/it_had_said come,down )

See the discussion in the introduction to 2 Kings of how the author and characters often use the term “behold” to focus their listeners’ attention on what they are about to say. Your language may have a comparable expression that you can use in your translation.

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom

רֹ֣אשׁ הָ⁠הָ֔ר

head of,the_hill

The author is using the term head to mean the top of this hill. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [the top of a hill]

Note 5 topic: writing-pronouns

וַ⁠חֲמִשָּׁ֑י⁠ו & וַ⁠יְדַבֵּ֣ר אֵלָ֔י⁠ו

(Some words not found in UHB: and,he_sent to=him/it chief fifty and,his_fifty_of,[men] and=he/it_ascended to=him/it and=see/lo/see! was_sitting on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in head of,the_hill and=he/it_spoke to=him/it (a)_man the=ʼElohīm the=king he/it_had_said come,down )

The pronoun he refers to the captain, while the pronoun him refers to Elijah. It may be helpful to clarify this for your readers. Alternate translation: [and the captain said to Elijah]

Note 6 topic: figures-of-speech / quotesinquotes

הַ⁠מֶּ֥לֶךְ דִּבֶּ֖ר רֵֽדָ⁠ה

(Some words not found in UHB: and,he_sent to=him/it chief fifty and,his_fifty_of,[men] and=he/it_ascended to=him/it and=see/lo/see! was_sitting on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in head of,the_hill and=he/it_spoke to=him/it (a)_man the=ʼElohīm the=king he/it_had_said come,down )

If it would be clearer in your language, you could translate this so that there is not a quotation within a quotation. Alternate translation: [the king orders you to come down]
