UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

אַחַ֖⁠י

brothers_of,my

The old man is speaking to these men as if they were his brothers. He is appealing to them as fellow members of the community. If it would be clearer in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [my fellow townsmen]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

אַ֠חֲרֵי אֲשֶׁר־בָּ֞א הָ⁠אִ֤ישׁ הַ⁠זֶּה֙ אַל־בֵּיתִ֔⁠י

after which/who he/it_came the=man the=this not house_of,my

The old man assumes that the men of Gibeah will understand from this phrase that the old man considers the Levite, as a guest in his home, to be under his protection. You could indicate this explicitly in your translation if that would be helpful to your readers. Alternate translation: [Since this man is a guest under my protection]
