and=DOM ʼAḩīnoˊam he/it_had_taken (Some words not found in UHB: and=DOM ʼAḩīnoˊam he/it_had_taken Dāvid from,Jezreel and,they_became also both_of,of_them to=him/it (into),wives )
This could mean either: (1) that around this time, David also married a woman named Ahinoam who came from Jezreel. The ULT reflects this understanding. Alternate translation: [And David married Ahinoam from Jezreel]; (2) that David had already married Ahinoam at some previous time. Some interpreters believe that this is the case because Ahinoam is named first in the list of David’s sons and their mothers in 2 Samuel 3:2. (However, other interpreters believe that is because she bore David his first son, not necessarily because he married her first.) Alternate translation: [And David had married Ahinoam from Jezreel]

(Some words not found in UHB: and=DOM ʼAḩīnoˊam he/it_had_taken Dāvid from,Jezreel and,they_became also both_of,of_them to=him/it (into),wives )
The word also indicates “in addition to Michal,” whom the author discusses in the next verse. You could indicate this explicitly in your translation if that would be helpful to your readers. Alternate translation: [and the two of them became wives for him in addition to Michal]

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.
