הֲל֣וֹא דָ֠וִד מִסְתַּתֵּ֨ר עִמָּ֤נוּ בַמְּצָדוֹת֙ בַּחֹ֔רְשָׁה בְּגִבְעַת֙ הַֽחֲכִילָ֔ה אֲשֶׁ֖ר מִימִ֥ין הַיְשִׁימֽוֹן
am=not Dāvid hiding among,us in/on/at/with,strongholds in/on/at/with,Horesh in/on/at/with,hill_of the,Hachilah which/who on,south_of the,jeshimon
The Ziphites are using the question form for emphasis. If a speaker of your language would not use the question form for that purpose, you could translate this as a statement or as an exclamation. Alternate translation: [David is hiding himself among us in strongholds in the forest on the hill of Hakilah, which is from the south of Jeshimon!]

אֲשֶׁ֖ר מִימִ֥ין הַיְשִׁימֽוֹן
which/who on,south_of the,jeshimon
These Ziphites are describing the location of one place relative to another in the way that is characteristic of their culture. In your translation, express this in the way your culture describes the relative location of places. Alternate translation: [which is south of Jeshimon]
23:19 Hakilah was a hill in the wilderness region of Ziph (23:14).
• The term Jeshimon is sometimes translated as “wasteland” rather than as a place name. It refers here to a specific wasteland located north of the Dead Sea, on both banks of the Jordan River (see Num 21:20).

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.
