OET (OET-RV) So David told his servants, “Pack up quickly and let’s get out of here, or else we won’t be able to escape from Abshalom. Be fast in case he’s heading here soon and overtakes us. That would be a massacre and the whole city would die from their swords.”

Here David speaks of Absalom and the men with him as “Absalom” himself because the men are following Absalom’s authority. Alternate translation: “escape from Absalom and his men … he and his men will quickly … and they will bring”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy
(Occurrence 0) attack the city with the edge of the sword
(Some words not found in UHB: and=he/it_said Dāvid to/from=all/each/any/every servants_of,his which/who with=him/it in/on/at/with,Jerusalem get_up and,flee that/for/because/then/when not there_~_be to/for=ourselves escape from=face/in_front_of ʼAⱱīshālōm hurry to=go lest quickly and,overtake,us and,bring on,us DOM the,disaster and,strike the=city with,edge_of sword )
The “city” is a metonym referring to the people in the city. Alternate translation: “will attack the people of our city and kill them with their swords”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy
The “edge of the sword” is a synecdoche referring to the Israelites’ swords and emphasize that they killed the people in battle.

This means to cause disaster to happen.
15:1-19 Absalom revolted against David eleven years after Amnon violated Tamar (cp. 13:23, 38; 14:28; 15:7), approximately the twenty-fifth year of David’s thirty-three-year reign in Jerusalem.

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.
