Normally the OET discourages the reading of individual ‘verses’, but this view is only designed as a tool for doing comparisons of different translations.

10:5 Gibeah of God, Saul’s hometown (10:26), had been a lawless city (Judg 19–21). Nowhere else is it described as being “of God.” This description might point to God’s ownership of the town despite the occupation of the Philistines.
• band: Prophets often lived in groups (e.g., 2 Kgs 2:3).
• harp . . . lyre: Ancient prophets sometimes used musical instruments to stimulate and accompany prophesying (e.g., 2 Kgs 3:15).

The author is using the expression to their face by association to mean at the front of the group. He is also using the names of musical instruments to mean people playing those instruments. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express these meanings plainly. Alternate translation: [And at the front of the group will be people playing harps and tambourines and flutes and lyres]
