Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / reduplication
וַֽיַּדְבְּק֥וּ גַם־הֵ֛מָּה אַחֲרֵיהֶ֖ם
and,pursued_~_closely also/even they(emph) after,them
The author is repeating the pronoun they for emphasis. Your language might more naturally express the emphasis in another way. Alternate translation: [and even they pursued after them]
Note 2 topic: writing-pronouns
וַֽיַּדְבְּק֥וּ גַם־הֵ֛מָּה אַחֲרֵיהֶ֖ם
and,pursued_~_closely also/even they(emph) after,them
The pronoun they refers to the Israelites who had been hiding, and the pronoun them refers to the fleeing Philistine soldiers. It may be helpful to clarify this for your readers. Alternate translation: [and even these Israelites who had been hiding joined in pursuing the Philistines]
14:1-52 Saul’s behavior in this chapter further justifies his dismissal as king (13:8-14; see also ch 15). Saul was alienated from both Samuel and his heroic son Jonathan. Chapter 14 anticipates the significant role that Jonathan played in the transition from Saul’s kingship to David’s.

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.
