Note: This view shows ‘verses’ which are not natural language units and hence sometimes only part of a sentence will be visible. Normally the OET discourages the reading of individual ‘verses’, but this view is only designed for doing comparisons of different translations. Click on any Bible version abbreviation down the left-hand side to see the verse in more of its context. The OET segments on this page are still very early looks into the unfinished texts of the Open English Translation of the Bible. Please double-check these texts in advance before using in public.

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / yousingular
תַּשְׁכִּ֖ים וּפָשַׁטְתָּ֣ & אֵלֶ֔יךָ וְעָשִׂ֣יתָ & יָדֶֽךָ
get_up and,rush & against,you and,do & hand,you
The words you and your are singular throughout this verse because the messengers are addressing Abimelek directly. However, they are speaking of what he and his troops will do, so it may be more natural for you to use plural forms if your language marks that distinction.
Note 2 topic: writing-pronouns
ה֞וּא
he/it
The pronoun he refers to Gaal. It may be helpful to clarify this for your readers. Alternate translation: [Gaal]
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom
כַּאֲשֶׁ֖ר תִּמְצָ֥א יָדֶֽךָ
just=as finds hand,you
The messengers are using a common expression that means that Abimelek would do what the opportunity allowed and the situation directed. In other words, Zebul was not making any further recommendation about what Abimelek should do at this point but leaving it to his discretion. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [as the opportunity presents]
Note 4 topic: translate-tense
וְהָיָ֤ה בַבֹּ֨קֶר֙ כִּזְרֹ֣חַ הַשֶּׁ֔מֶשׁ תַּשְׁכִּ֖ים וּפָשַׁטְתָּ֣ עַל־הָעִ֑יר
and=it_was in/on/at/with,morning at,up the,sun get_up and,rush on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in the=city
The messengers are continuing to communicate a recommendation from Zebul. Translate this using forms that someone would use in your language to address a superior. Alternate translation: [And I would recommend that in the morning, as the sun rises, you start early and rush against the city]
