OET (OET-LV) And_took_him Shāʼūl in_the_day (the)_that and_not let_him to_return the_house_of his/its_father.
Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / events
וַיִּקָּחֵ֥הוּ שָׁא֖וּל בַּיּ֣וֹם הַה֑וּא וְלֹ֣א נְתָנ֔וֹ לָשׁ֖וּב בֵּ֥ית אָבִֽיו
and,took,him Shāʼūl in_the=day (the)=that and=not let,him to,return house_of his/its=father
The author is describing one event before describing another event that preceded it. In your translation, you may wish to relate these events in the order in which they happened. Alternate translation: [And on that day, Saul did not allow David to return to his father’s house; instead, he took David into his service]
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
וַיִּקָּחֵ֥הוּ שָׁא֖וּל
and,took,him Shāʼūl
The author assumes that his readers will know that by Saul took him, he means that Saul took David into his service. You could indicate this explicitly in your translation if that would be helpful to your readers. Alternate translation: [And Saul took David into his service]
18:2 David had previously served Saul part-time (see 17:15 and corresponding study note); now Saul kept David with him full-time.

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.
