Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / events

and,brought_away DOM livestock_of,their and,struck (is)_in=them losses heavy
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 he struck a great striking against them, and he drove off their livestock]
Note 2 topic: writing-poetry
וַיַּ֥ךְ בָּהֶ֖ם מַכָּ֣ה גְדוֹלָ֑ה
and,struck (is)_in=them losses heavy
See how you translated this same expression in [19:8](../19/08.md). Alternate translation: [and slaughtered very many of them]
23:1-29 Thanks to informants (23:7, 13), Saul was able to stay on David’s trail. David also had informants, allowing him to keep one step ahead of Saul (23:1, 9, 15, 25). David’s chief advantage was access to divine guidance and resources (23:2, 4, 12), which Saul lacked.

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.
