Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / quotations
וַ֠יֹּאמֶר אֲשֶׁר־נָ֨ס הָעָ֜ם מִן־הַמִּלְחָמָ֗ה וְגַם־הַרְבֵּ֞ה נָפַ֤ל מִן־הָעָם֙ וַיָּמֻ֔תוּ וְגַ֗ם שָׁא֛וּל וִיהוֹנָתָ֥ן בְּנ֖וֹ מֵֽתוּ
(Some words not found in UHB: and=he/it_said to=him/it Dāvid what? it_became the,word tell now to=me and=he/it_said which/who fled the,people from/more_than the,battle and=also many fell from/more_than the,people and,they_have_died and=also Shāʼūl/(Saul) and,Jonathan his/its=son dead )
It may be more natural in your language to have a direct quotation here. Alternate translation: [And he said, “The people fled from the battle, and also many from the people fell and died, and even Saul and Jonathan his son died.”]
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
הָעָ֜ם & מִן־הָעָם֙
the,people & from/more_than the,people
By the people, the young man means the Israelite army. You could indicate this explicitly in your translation if that would be helpful to your readers. Alternate translation: [the army … from the army]
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / hendiadys
נָפַ֤ל & וַיָּמֻ֔תוּ
fell & (Some words not found in UHB: and=he/it_said to=him/it Dāvid what? it_became the,word tell now to=me and=he/it_said which/who fled the,people from/more_than the,battle and=also many fell from/more_than the,people and,they_have_died and=also Shāʼūl/(Saul) and,Jonathan his/its=son dead )
The verbs fallen and died together also express a single idea. The verb fallen tells in what way these soldiers had died. Specifically, this was by being mortally wounded in battle, which caused them to fall to the ground. Alternate translation: [had died of their wounds] or [had died in battle]

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.
