UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: translate-tense

וַ⁠יֵּצֵ֥א

and=he/it_went_out

It is clear from the narrative that this action was not completed by the time it was reported to Abimelek. It was something that the people were planning to do and that was in process. It may be more natural in your language to use a different verb tense to indicate this. Alternate translation: “that … were going out”

Note 2 topic: grammar-collectivenouns

הַ⁠שָּׂדֶ֑ה

the=field

The author is using the word field to mean all of the cultivated land around Shechem. It may be more natural in your language to use the plural form of that word, here and in the next two verses. Alternate translation: “to the fields”

Note 3 topic: writing-pronouns

וַ⁠יַּגִּ֖דוּ לַ⁠אֲבִימֶֽלֶךְ

and,reported to,Abimelech

The pronoun they is indefinite here; it does not have a specific referent in the immediate context. If it would be helpful in your language, you could translate this with a different expression that does not use an indefinite pronoun. Alternate translation: “and this was reported to Abimelek”
