(Some words not found in UHB: and=he/it_said Dāvid to/towards Achish for=so/thus/hence you(ms) know DOM which/who he/it_made/did servant,your and=he/it_said Achish to/towards Dāvid for=so/thus/hence he/it_was_watching of,head_of,my make,you all/each/any/every the=days )
The word “so” shows that the speaker agrees with what the other person has just said. Alternate translation: “Yes, I will go with you so that you will know … Very well, I will”
(Occurrence 0) you will know what your servant can do
(Some words not found in UHB: and=he/it_said Dāvid to/towards Achish for=so/thus/hence you(ms) know DOM which/who he/it_made/did servant,your and=he/it_said Achish to/towards Dāvid for=so/thus/hence he/it_was_watching of,head_of,my make,you all/each/any/every the=days )
David probably wanted Achish to think that David would kill many Israelites, but “what your servant can do” could also mean that David was planning to kill Philistines instead. Try to translate so that the reader can see both of these possible meanings.

(Occurrence 0) your servant
(Some words not found in UHB: and=he/it_said Dāvid to/towards Achish for=so/thus/hence you(ms) know DOM which/who he/it_made/did servant,your and=he/it_said Achish to/towards Dāvid for=so/thus/hence he/it_was_watching of,head_of,my make,you all/each/any/every the=days )
David speaks as if he is another person so that Achish will think David respects him. Alternate translation: “I”

(Occurrence 0) make you
(Some words not found in UHB: and=he/it_said Dāvid to/towards Achish for=so/thus/hence you(ms) know DOM which/who he/it_made/did servant,your and=he/it_said Achish to/towards Dāvid for=so/thus/hence he/it_was_watching of,head_of,my make,you all/each/any/every the=days )
The word “you” refers to David and so is singular.
(Occurrence 0) bodyguard
(Some words not found in UHB: and=he/it_said Dāvid to/towards Achish for=so/thus/hence you(ms) know DOM which/who he/it_made/did servant,your and=he/it_said Achish to/towards Dāvid for=so/thus/hence he/it_was_watching of,head_of,my make,you all/each/any/every the=days )

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.
