OET (OET-RV) Meanwhile David told Abishai, “Bikri’s son Sheva will do more harm to us now than Abshalom. Take some of my warriors and chase him down, in case he finds some fortified city to hide in and gets away from us.”
Note 1 topic: translate-names
(Occurrence 0) Abishai
(Some words not found in UHB: and=he/it_said Dāvid to/towards ʼAⱱīshay now do_~_harm to/for=us seven son_of Bikrī from/more_than ʼAⱱīshālōm you(ms) take DOM servants lord's,your and,pursue after,him lest he/it_found to=him/it cities fortified and,escape sight,us )
This is another commander of David’s army. See how you translated his name in 2 Samuel 2:18.
(Occurrence 0) do us more harm
(Some words not found in UHB: and=he/it_said Dāvid to/towards ʼAⱱīshay now do_~_harm to/for=us seven son_of Bikrī from/more_than ʼAⱱīshālōm you(ms) take DOM servants lord's,your and,pursue after,him lest he/it_found to=him/it cities fortified and,escape sight,us )
Alternate translation: “hurt us more”
(Occurrence 0) your master’s servants, my soldiers
(Some words not found in UHB: and=he/it_said Dāvid to/towards ʼAⱱīshay now do_~_harm to/for=us seven son_of Bikrī from/more_than ʼAⱱīshālōm you(ms) take DOM servants lord's,your and,pursue after,him lest he/it_found to=him/it cities fortified and,escape sight,us )
The phrase “my soldiers” clarifies which “servants.” David refers to himself as “your master” as a formal way of speaking to someone with less authority.
(Occurrence 0) pursue after
(Some words not found in UHB: and=he/it_said Dāvid to/towards ʼAⱱīshay now do_~_harm to/for=us seven son_of Bikrī from/more_than ʼAⱱīshālōm you(ms) take DOM servants lord's,your and,pursue after,him lest he/it_found to=him/it cities fortified and,escape sight,us )
Alternate translation: “chase after”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
(Occurrence 0) he will find fortified cities
(Some words not found in UHB: and=he/it_said Dāvid to/towards ʼAⱱīshay now do_~_harm to/for=us seven son_of Bikrī from/more_than ʼAⱱīshālōm you(ms) take DOM servants lord's,your and,pursue after,him lest he/it_found to=him/it cities fortified and,escape sight,us )
This means that Sheba and his men will enter these cities to hide from David’s army. The word “he” represents Sheba but refers to both him and his men. Alternate translation: “he and his men will hide in fortified cities” or “he and his men will take refuge in fortified cities” (See also: figs-synecdoche)
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy
(Occurrence 0) out of our sight
(Some words not found in UHB: and=he/it_said Dāvid to/towards ʼAⱱīshay now do_~_harm to/for=us seven son_of Bikrī from/more_than ʼAⱱīshālōm you(ms) take DOM servants lord's,your and,pursue after,him lest he/it_found to=him/it cities fortified and,escape sight,us )
Here David refers to his army by their sight to emphasize that Sheba and his men would be hidden and David’s army would be unable to capture them. Alternate translation: “from us”
OET (OET-LV) and_he/it_said Dāvid to ʼAⱱīshay now he_will_be_bad to/for_us Sheⱱaˊ the_son of_Bicri more_than ʼAⱱīshālōm you take DOM the_servants master’s_your and_pursue after_him lest he_has_found to_him/it cities fortified and_escape sight_us.
OET (OET-RV) Meanwhile David told Abishai, “Bikri’s son Sheva will do more harm to us now than Abshalom. Take some of my warriors and chase him down, in case he finds some fortified city to hide in and gets away from us.”
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.
