שִׁכְּלָ֤ה נָשִׁים֙ חַרְבֶּ֔ךָ
made_~_childless women/wives sword_of,your
Samuel is speaking of Agag’s sword as if it were a living thing that could have made women childless by itself. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [you have killed the children of many women with your sword]
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / synecdoche
שִׁכְּלָ֤ה נָשִׁים֙ חַרְבֶּ֔ךָ
made_~_childless women/wives sword_of,your
Samuel is using the sword of one of the Amalekites, their king and commander Agag, to represent all of them in the act of killing people with their swords. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [with your swords, you and the Amalekites you have commanded have made women childless]
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy
לִפְנֵ֥י יְהוָ֖ה
to=(the)_face_of/in_front_of/before YHWH
Samuel is using the term face by association to mean presence. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use an equivalent expression or plain language. Alternate translation: [in the presence of Yahweh]
15:1-35 After Saul failed to obey God and completely destroy the Amalekites, God rejected him in even stronger terms than before (cp. 13:8-14).

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.
