וּ⁠בְנֵ֥י עֵלִ֖י בְּנֵ֣י בְלִיָּ֑עַל לֹ֥א יָדְע֖וּ אֶת־יְהוָֽה

and=the_sons ˊĒlī sons_of worthless not know DOM YHWH

See the Introduction to this chapter for a discussion of how the author repeatedly reintroduces Eli or his sons and Samuel in the rest of this chapter in order to draw a contrast between Samuel and Eli’s sons. Your language may have its own way of introducing or reintroducing participants that you can use in your translation, here and in the rest of the chapter.

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom

בְּנֵ֣י בְלִיָּ֑עַל

See how you translated the similar expression in 1:16. Alternate translation: [were very wicked men]

TSN Tyndale Study Notes:

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.
