OET interlinear 1 SAM 13:3

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

וַ⁠יַּ֣ךְ יוֹנָתָ֗ן

(Some words not found in UHB: and,he_attacked Yōnātān/(Yəhōnātān/(Jonathan)) DOM garrison_of Pelishtim which/who [was]_at,Geba and=they_heard Pelishtim and,Saul blew on,trumpet in=all the=earth/land to=say they_will_understand the,Hebrews )

See the discussion of the term “struck” in the Introduction to 1 Samuel, and see how you translated the term in 4:2. Since the author describes in 13:16 how Saul and Jonathan soon occupied this strategic position in Geba themselves, it should be understood that Jonathan destroyed the Philistine garrison there. Alternate translation: [And Jonathan destroyed]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / synecdoche

The author is using Jonathan to represent him and the soldiers under his command. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [And Jonathan and his soldiers destroyed]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / ellipsis

The author is leaving out some of the words that in many languages a sentence would need to be complete. You can supply these words from the context if that would be clearer in your language. Alternate translation: [and the Philistines heard about this attack]

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / synecdoche

וְ⁠שָׁאוּל֩ תָּקַ֨ע בַּ⁠שּׁוֹפָ֤ר

(Some words not found in UHB: and,he_attacked Yōnātān/(Yəhōnātān/(Jonathan)) DOM garrison_of Pelishtim which/who [was]_at,Geba and=they_heard Pelishtim and,Saul blew on,trumpet in=all the=earth/land to=say they_will_understand the,Hebrews )

The author is using Saul’s name to represent him and the messengers he sent to bring news to the other Israelites. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [And Saul had messengers blow shofars]
