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.

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / events
וַיָּ֤טֶל שָׁאוּל֙ אֶֽת־הַחֲנִ֔ית וַיֹּ֕אמֶר אַכֶּ֥ה בְדָוִ֖ד וּבַקִּ֑יר
and,hurled Shāʼūl/(Saul) DOM the,spear and=he/it_said pin in/on/at/with,David and,in/on/at/with,wall
The author is describing one event before describing another event that preceded it. In your translation, you may wish to relate these events in the order in which they happened. Alternate translation: [And Saul said, “I will strike David, and into the wall!” and he hurled the spear]
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / ellipsis
וּבַקִּ֑יר
and,in/on/at/with,wall
Saul is leaving out some of the words that in many languages a sentence would need in order to be complete. You can supply these words from the context if that would be clearer in your language. Alternate translation: [and the spear will drive him into the wall]
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / synecdoche
וַיִּסֹּ֥ב & מִפָּנָ֖יו
and,eluded & from,presence_of,him
The author is using one part of Saul, his face, to mean all of him in the act of trying to kill David. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [avoided him]
