If it would be clearer in your language, you could translate this so that there is not a quotation within a quotation. Alternate translation: [then I told myself that the Philistines would soon come down against me at Gilgal and that I had not entreated the face of Yahweh]

אֵלַי֙
to=me
Saul is using himself to represent all of the Israelite soldiers. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [against us]
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / synecdoche
וּפְנֵ֥י יְהוָ֖ה
and,favor_of YHWH
The author is using one part of Yahweh, his face, to represent all of him in the act of being entreated. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [Yahweh]
13:12 asked for the Lord’s help: The purpose of the burnt offering was to entreat God to grant victory in battle. Samuel himself had offered a similar sacrifice, which did lead to victory in battle (see 7:7-11). But Samuel, unlike Saul, served in a priestly role.

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.
