OET (OET-RV) Abishai whispered to David, “Today God has arranged for you to defeat your enemy. So please let me pierce him now with the spear through him and into the ground. Only one strike will do it—I won’t have to strike him a second time.
Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy
בְּיָדֶ֑ךָ
in/on/at/with,hand_of,your
The author is using the term hand by association to mean power or control. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use an equivalent expression or plain language. Alternate translation: [into your control]
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
אַחַ֔ת וְלֹ֥א אֶשְׁנֶ֖ה לֽוֹ
one(fs) and=not twice to=him/it
Abishai is not asking David for just one chance to kill Saul and promising that he will let Saul live if he fails to kill him the first time. He means that he will not need to strike Saul more than once, since the first blow will kill him. You could indicate this explicitly in your translation if that would be helpful to your readers. Alternate translation: [And I will not need to strike him a second 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.
