OET (OET-RV) If someone sins against a person, then God will mediate for him, but if someone sins against Yahweh, who will speak up for that person?” But they wouldn’t listen to their father’s advice because Yahweh wanted to put them to death.

(Occurrence 0) who will speak for him?
(Some words not found in UHB: if sins (a)_man against,man and,intercede,him ʼElohīm and=if to/for=YHWH sins (a)_man who? intercede to=him/it and=not they_will_understand to=sound/voice father,their that/for/because/then/when the_will YHWH to,kill,them )
If it would be helpful in your language, you could express this question as a statement. Alternate translation: “there is certainly no one who can speak for him.”

(Occurrence 0) the voice of their father
(Some words not found in UHB: if sins (a)_man against,man and,intercede,him ʼElohīm and=if to/for=YHWH sins (a)_man who? intercede to=him/it and=not they_will_understand to=sound/voice father,their that/for/because/then/when the_will YHWH to,kill,them )
Here the father’s “voice” represents the father. Alternate translation: “their father” or “what their father said”
2:25 God (or the judges; Hebrew ’elohim): The Hebrew verb translated mediate is plural here, and when ’elohim means “God,” it often appears with a singular verb. In addition, some ancient translations render ’elohim as “judges” here. If that is the correct translation, then the judges would mediate for the guilty party in a common human court. However, many Hebrew scholars believe that ’elohim should never be translated “judges.” If this is the case, in what sense could God mediate for the guilty party? Possibly Eli considered the court verdict to come directly from God. God might work through his revealed law or other circumstances to either acquit or convict an individual charged with wrongdoing. Or Eli might have been referring to the sacrificial system.
• The sexual immorality (2:22) and gluttony (2:12-17) of Eli’s sons were sins against the Lord because they were corrupting Israel’s worship of him. No one can intercede for sinners who rebel so completely against God’s will (cp. Matt 12:31).
• Eli’s sons did not listen to their father because the Lord had already begun to punish them by hardening their hearts (cp. Exod 4:21; 7:3; 8:15-32; 10:27; 11:10).

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.
