head
The author is using the image of the head to mean a leader or chief. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [chief]

to/towards harvest_time
The traditional Hebrew text reads “the harvest.” The ULT follows that reading. The parallel passage in [1 Chronicles 11:15](../../1ch/11/15.md) reads “the rock.” That may have been the original reading, since it suits the grammar and context better and involves a difference of only one letter. If a translation of the Bible exists in your region, you may wish to use the reading that it uses. If a translation of the Bible does not exist in your region, you may wish to use the reading of the ULT.

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.
