Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor
וַיַּ֤עַט הָעָם֙ אֶל־הַשָּׁלָ֔ל
(Some words not found in UHB: and,pounced the,troops to/towards שלל and=they_took flock_of_sheep/goats and,cattle and=the_sons cattle and,slaughtered ground,on and,ate the,troops on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in the,blood )
The author is speaking of the people as if they had been birds of prey diving for food. If it would be clearer in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [And the people rushed desperately to take some of the plunder]
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom
וּבְנֵ֥י בָקָ֖ר
and=the_sons cattle
The author is using a common expression of his culture that means young cattle. Your language may have a comparable expression that you could use in your translation. Alternate translation: [and calves]
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
אָ֑רְצָה
ground,on
The author assumes that readers will understand that by slaughtering animals on the ground, the people were not hanging them up to let the blood drain out, as the law of Moses required. You could indicate this explicitly in your translation if that would be helpful to your readers. Alternate translation: [on the ground, rather than hanging them up so that the blood would drain out]
Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / ellipsis
עַל־הַדָּֽם
on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in the,blood
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: [the meat with the blood still in it]
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.
OET (OET-LV) And_pounced[fn] the_troops to wwww[fn] and_they_took sheep and_cattle and_the_sons the_herd and_slaughtered ground_on and_ate the_troops with the_blood.
OET (OET-RV) They rushed greedily at the plunder, grabbing sheep, cattle, and calves which they slaughtered right there and ate with the blood still in them.
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.
Acknowledgements: The Hebrew text, lemmas, and morphology are all thanks to the OSHB and some of the glosses are from Macula Hebrew.
