לְפָנֶ֑יךָ
to=your=face
The young women are speaking of Saul’s face to represent what is in front of him. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use an equivalent expression or plain language as in the UST.

מַהֵ֣ר ׀ עַתָּ֗ה כִּ֤י הַיּוֹם֙ בָּ֣א לָעִ֔יר כִּ֣י זֶ֧בַח הַיּ֛וֹם לָעָ֖ם בַּבָּמָֽה
hurry (Some words not found in UHB: and,they_answered ,them and,they_said he_is see/lo/see! to=your=face hurry now that/for/because/then/when the=day he/it_came to,city that/for/because/then/when sacrifice_of the=day [belongs]_to,people at,place )
If it would be more natural in your language, you could reverse the order of these phrases, since the second phrase gives the reason for the result that the first phrase describes. Alternate translation: [Since the sacrifice of the day is to the people at the high place, he has come to the city today, so you should hurry now]
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / possession
זֶ֧בַח הַיּ֛וֹם לָעָ֖ם
sacrifice_of the=day [belongs]_to,people
The young women are using this possessive form not to describe a daily sacrifice but to describe a special sacrifice that Samuel was going to offer on that day. Alternate translation: [there is going to be a special sacrifice today for the people]

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.
