OET (OET-RV) When Sha’ul had seen David going out to meet Goliat, he’d asked Abner, the army commander, “Whose son is this lad, Abner?”
¶ “As surely as you live, your majesty,” replied Abner, “I don’t know.”

(Occurrence 0) When Saul saw David
(Some words not found in UHB: and,when,saw Shāʼūl DOM Dāvid going_out to,meet the,Philistine he/it_had_said to/towards ʼAⱱnēr chief the,army son_of who? this the,young_man ʼAⱱnēr and=he/it_said ʼAⱱnēr lives soul_of,your the=king if know )
The conversation in 17:55–56 happened before David killed Goliath. Alternate translation: “When Saul had seen David” or “Earlier when Saul saw David”
(Occurrence 0) go out against the Philistine
(Some words not found in UHB: and,when,saw Shāʼūl DOM Dāvid going_out to,meet the,Philistine he/it_had_said to/towards ʼAⱱnēr chief the,army son_of who? this the,young_man ʼAⱱnēr and=he/it_said ʼAⱱnēr lives soul_of,your the=king if know )
Alternate translation: “go to fight against the Philistine”
(Occurrence 0) whose son is this youth
(Some words not found in UHB: and,when,saw Shāʼūl DOM Dāvid going_out to,meet the,Philistine he/it_had_said to/towards ʼAⱱnēr chief the,army son_of who? this the,young_man ʼAⱱnēr and=he/it_said ʼAⱱnēr lives soul_of,your the=king if know )
Alternate translation: “who is this youth’s father”
(Occurrence 0) As you live
(Some words not found in UHB: and,when,saw Shāʼūl DOM Dāvid going_out to,meet the,Philistine he/it_had_said to/towards ʼAⱱnēr chief the,army son_of who? this the,young_man ʼAⱱnēr and=he/it_said ʼAⱱnēr lives soul_of,your the=king if know )
This was a way of swearing that what he was about to say was true.
17:55-58 In light of 16:14-23, it is surprising that neither Saul nor Abner knew who David was. It is possible that the events of ch 17 happened either before or long after David’s tenure of intermittent service mentioned in ch 16 (Saul probably served as king for forty-two years, 13:1).

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.
