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 as a tool 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.

14:1-52 Saul’s behavior in this chapter further justifies his dismissal as king (13:8-14; see also ch 15). Saul was alienated from both Samuel and his heroic son Jonathan. Chapter 14 anticipates the significant role that Jonathan played in the transition from Saul’s kingship to David’s.
Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / quotesinquotes
וְאִם־כֹּ֨ה יֹאמְר֜וּ עֲל֤וּ עָלֵ֨ינוּ֙
and=if this say come_up to,us
If it would be clearer in your language, you could translate this so that there is not a quotation within a quotation. Alternate translation: [But if they tell us to come up to them]
Note 2 topic: grammar-connect-logic-result
וְעָלִ֔ינוּ כִּֽי־נְתָנָ֥ם יְהוָ֖ה בְּיָדֵ֑נוּ וְזֶה־לָּ֖נוּ הָאֽוֹת
and,go_up that/for/because/then/when given,them YHWH in/on/at/with,hand_of,our and=this to/for=ourselves the,sign
If it would be more natural in your language, you could reverse the order of these phrases, since the second phrase gives the reason for the result that the first phrase describes. Alternate translation: [then that will be a sign for us that Yahweh has given them into our hand, so we will go up]
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / pastforfuture
נְתָנָ֥ם יְהוָ֖ה בְּיָדֵ֑נוּ
given,them YHWH in/on/at/with,hand_of,our
Jonathan is using the past tense to describe something that he believes would certainly happen in the future. If it would be clearer in your language, you could use the future tense. Alternate translation: [Yahweh will give them into our hand]
Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy
בְּיָדֵ֑נוּ
in/on/at/with,hand_of,our
Jonathan is using the term hand by association to mean power or control. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use an equivalent expression or plain language. Alternate translation: [into our power]
