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
וַיִּקָּחֵ֥הוּ שָׁא֖וּל בַּיּ֣וֹם הַה֑וּא וְלֹ֣א נְתָנ֔וֹ לָשׁ֖וּב בֵּ֥ית אָבִֽיו
and,took,him Shāʼūl/(Saul) in_the=day (the)=that and=not let,him to,return house_of his/its=father
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 on that day, Saul did not allow David to return to his father’s house; instead, he took David into his service]
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
וַיִּקָּחֵ֥הוּ שָׁא֖וּל
and,took,him Shāʼūl/(Saul)
The author assumes that his readers will know that by Saul took him, he means that Saul took David into his service. You could indicate this explicitly in your translation if that would be helpful to your readers. Alternate translation: [And Saul took David into his service]
