OET (OET-RV) Then the Ammonite leaders realised that they’d now caused David to despise them, so they hired twenty thousand Aramean (or Syrian) mercenaries from Beyt-Rehob and Tsovah, and another one thousand from Maakah and twelve thousand from Tov.

become_odious (Some words not found in UHB: and=they_saw sons_of ˊAmmōn that/for/because/then/when become_odious with,David and,they_sent sons_of ˊAmmōn and,they_hired DOM ʼArām_of_Beth- house_of ʼArām_of_Beth- and=DOM Tsōⱱāh/(Zobah) Tsōⱱāh/(Zobah) twenty thousand foot_soldiers and=DOM king Maˊₐkāh one_thousand (a)_man and,the_man_of good two ten thousand (a)_man )
The author is speaking as if the Ammonites had made themselves smell so bad that they were offensive to David. He is using this image to mean that the Ammonites had provoked David. Your language may have a comparable image that you could use in your translation. You could also use plain language. If you have already translated the book of 1 Samuel, see how you translated the similar expression in [1 Samuel 13:4](../../1sa/13/04.md). Alternate translation: [they had incensed David] or [they had provoked David]

אֶת־אֲרַ֨ם בֵּית־רְח֜וֹב וְאֶת־אֲרַ֣ם צוֹבָ֗א עֶשְׂרִ֥ים אֶ֨לֶף֙ רַגְלִ֔י וְאֶת־מֶ֤לֶךְ מַֽעֲכָה֙ אֶ֣לֶף אִ֔ישׁ וְאִ֣ישׁ ט֔וֹב שְׁנֵים־עָשָׂ֥ר אֶ֖לֶף אִֽישׁ

The author is using the names of each of these kingdoms to represent soldiers from those kingdoms. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use an equivalent expression or plain language. Alternate translation: [20,000 footsoldiers from Aram of Beth-Rehob and Aram of Zoba, 1,000 men of the king of Maacah, and 12,000 men of Tob]
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / genericnoun
וְאִ֣ישׁ ט֔וֹב
and,the_man_of good
The author is not referring to a specific man of Tob. He means men from Tob in general. If it would be helpful to your readers, you could use an expression that would be more natural in your language. Alternate translation: [and men from Tob]

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.
