OET (OET-RV) “Far from it,” Yonatan responded. “You won’t die. Listen, my father doesn’t do anything, big or small, without telling me. So why would my father hide this from me if it was his plan? No, you’re wrong.”
Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom
(Occurrence 0) Far from it
(Some words not found in UHB: and=he/it_said to=him/it never!, not die see/lo/see! ל,ו doesn't father,my anything big/great or anything small and=not confiding DOM ear_of,me and,why hide father,my from,me DOM the,thing the=this not this(f) )
Here “far from it” is an idiom that refers to that it is not true. Alternate translation: “This is certainly not true”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / merism
(Occurrence 0) nothing either great or small
(Some words not found in UHB: and=he/it_said to=him/it never!, not die see/lo/see! ל,ו doesn't father,my anything big/great or anything small and=not confiding DOM ear_of,me and,why hide father,my from,me DOM the,thing the=this not this(f) )
The words “great or small” include everything in between. Alternate translation: “nothing at all”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / rquestion
(Occurrence 0) Why should my father hide this thing from me?
(Some words not found in UHB: and=he/it_said to=him/it never!, not die see/lo/see! ל,ו doesn't father,my anything big/great or anything small and=not confiding DOM ear_of,me and,why hide father,my from,me DOM the,thing the=this not this(f) )
Jonathan uses this question to emphasize that Saul would have told him if he planned to kill David. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express this question as a statement. Alternate translation: “My father has no reason to hide this thing from me!” or “If this thing were true, my father would certainly let me know!”
(Occurrence 0) It is not so
(Some words not found in UHB: and=he/it_said to=him/it never!, not die see/lo/see! ל,ו doesn't father,my anything big/great or anything small and=not confiding DOM ear_of,me and,why hide father,my from,me DOM the,thing the=this not this(f) )
Alternate translation: “It is not true”
20:2-3 Jonathan was naive about his father’s intentions. David’s willingness to swear . . . by the Lord showed how convinced he was about Saul’s intentions.

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.
