OET (OET-LV) And_ the_man_of _he_sent the_ʼElohīm to the_king_of Yisrāʼēl/(Israel) to_say take_care from_passing_by the_place the_this if/because there ʼArām is_descending.
OET (OET-RV) However, the man of God sent to Yisrael’s king to warn him, “Beware of passing by such and such a place, because the Aramean army will be attacking there.”
Note 1 topic: writing-quotations
לֵאמֹ֔ר
to=say
The implication is that Elisha told the king to what place the Aramean army was coming before telling him not to go near that place. You could include this information as part of this introduction to the direct quotation. Alternate translation: [telling him where the Aramean army was coming and warning him]
Note 2 topic: grammar-connect-logic-result
הִשָּׁ֕מֶר מֵעֲבֹ֖ר הַמָּק֣וֹם הַזֶּ֑ה כִּֽי־שָׁ֖ם אֲרָ֥ם נְחִתִּֽים
(Some words not found in UHB: and,he_sent (a)_man the=ʼElohīm to/towards king Yisrael to=say beware from,passing_by the,place the=this that/for/because/then/when there ʼArām going_down )
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: [Since Aram is coming down there, guard yourself from passing by that place]
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy
אֲרָ֥ם
ʼArām
See how you translated the similar expression in [3:6](../03/06.md). Alternate translation: [the Aramean army]
Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / explicitinfo
נְחִתִּֽים
(Some words not found in UHB: and,he_sent (a)_man the=ʼElohīm to/towards king Yisrael to=say beware from,passing_by the,place the=this that/for/because/then/when there ʼArām going_down )
See how you translated the comparable expression “go up” in [1:3](../01/03.md). Alternate translation: [is coming]

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.
