בָּאוּרִ֖ים
in/on/at/with,urim
The author is using one of two objects that were used to obtain guidance, the Urim, to represent both parts. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [by the Urim and Thummim]
Note 2 topic: translate-unknown
בָּאוּרִ֖ים
in/on/at/with,urim
The Urim was one of two objects (along with the Thummim) that the high priest used to determine God’s will. If your readers would not be familiar with what the Urim was, in your translation you could use the name of a similar thing that your readers would recognize, or you could use a general expression. Alternate translation: [by the sacred lots]
28:6 refused to answer: Earlier, Saul had consulted the Lord by sacred lots with mixed results (14:36-42). God’s refusal to speak was a sign of his judgment (14:37; Lam 2:9; Ezek 7:26; Amos 8:11-12; Mic 3:6-7).

OET (OET-RV) He asked Yahweh for direction, but Yahweh didn’t answer him either through a dream, nor by use of the sacred pouch, nor through any prophet.
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.
