כִּ֣י
that/for/because/then/when
Saul is using the word For not to introduce a reason but to introduce further information about his intentions. Alternate translation: [I can assure you that]
Note 2 topic: writing-oathformula
חַי־יְהוָ֗ה הַמּוֹשִׁ֨יעַ֙ אֶת־יִשְׂרָאֵ֔ל
he/it_lived YHWH the,saves DOM Yisrael
Following the conventions of his culture, Saul is swearing an oath by guaranteeing it by something he holds sacred. Use a natural way in your language to express an oath. Alternate translation: [I swear by Yahweh, the one having saved Israel]
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / reduplication
מ֣וֹת יָמ֑וּת
to_die he_must_die
Saul is repeating forms of the verb die to intensify his expression of how certainly he will execute the guilty person. If your language can repeat words for intensification, it would be appropriate to do that here in your translation. If not, your language may have another way of expressing the intensification. Alternate translation: [he shall surely die]
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.
