OET (OET-RV) Your servant has killed both a lion and a bear, and that uncircumcised Philistine will end up just like them, because he’s insulted the army of the living God.”
Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / 123person
הִכָּ֣ה עַבְדֶּ֑ךָ
killed servant_of,your
David is speaking about himself humbly in the third person. If it would be helpful in your language, you could translate this in the first person. Alternate translation: [I, your servant, have struck]
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
הִכָּ֣ה
killed
Here the context shows that the term struck means “killed,” as it often does elsewhere in the book. Alternate translation: [has killed]
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / genericnoun
גַּ֧ם אֶֽת־הָאֲרִ֛י גַּם־הַדּ֖וֹב
also/yet DOM the,lion also/yet the,bear
David is not referring to specific animals. He means such animals in general. It may be more natural in your language to express this meaning by using plural forms. Alternate translation: [both lions and bears]
Note 4 topic: grammar-connect-logic-result
וְֽ֠הָיָה הַפְּלִשְׁתִּ֨י הֶעָרֵ֤ל הַזֶּה֙ כְּאַחַ֣ד מֵהֶ֔ם כִּ֣י חֵרֵ֔ף מַעַרְכֹ֖ת אֱלֹהִ֥ים חַיִּֽים
and=it_was the,Philistine the,uncircumcised the=this like=one from=them that/for/because/then/when defied armies_of ʼElohīm life(pl)
If it would be more natural in your language, you could reverse the order of these phrases, since the second phrase gives the reason for the result that the first phrase describes. Alternate translation: [and since this uncircumcised Philistine has taunted the armies of the living God, he will be like one of them]
Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
הַפְּלִשְׁתִּ֨י הֶעָרֵ֤ל הַזֶּה֙
the,Philistine the,uncircumcised the=this
See how you translated this expression in [14:6](../14/06.md). Alternate translation: [this heathen Philistine]
OET (OET-LV) Both DOM the_lion as_well_as the_bear servant_of_your he_has_struck_down and_it_was the_Philistine the_uncircumcised the_this like_one from_them if/because he_has_defied the_battle_lines_of god living.
OET (OET-RV) Your servant has killed both a lion and a bear, and that uncircumcised Philistine will end up just like them, because he’s insulted the army of the living God.”
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.
