TSNTyndale Study Notes:

23:1-29 Thanks to informants (23:7, 13), Saul was able to stay on David’s trail. David also had informants, allowing him to keep one step ahead of Saul (23:1, 9, 15, 25). David’s chief advantage was access to divine guidance and resources (23:2, 4, 12), which Saul lacked.


UTNuW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / events

הֲ⁠יַסְגִּרֻ֣⁠נִי בַעֲלֵי֩ קְעִילָ֨ה בְ⁠יָד֜⁠וֹ הֲ⁠יֵרֵ֣ד שָׁא֗וּל כַּֽ⁠אֲשֶׁר֙ שָׁמַ֣ע עַבְדֶּ֔⁠ךָ

?,surrender,me men_of Qəˊīlāh in/on/at/with,hand_of,his ?,come_down Shāʼūl/(Saul) just_as, heard servant_of,your

David is asking about one event before asking about another event that would precede it. In your translation, you may wish to relate these events in the order in which they would happen. Alternate translation: [Will Saul come down, just as your servant has heard? Will the lords of Keilah enclose me in his hand?]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

הֲ⁠יַסְגִּרֻ֣⁠נִי בַעֲלֵי֩ קְעִילָ֨ה בְ⁠יָד֜⁠וֹ

?,surrender,me men_of Qəˊīlāh in/on/at/with,hand_of,his

David is speaking of the lords of Keilah surrendering to Saul as if they would place him in Saul’s hand and enclose him in it by wrapping Saul’s fingers tightly around him. If it would be clearer in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [Will the lords of Keilah surrender me to him]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / 123person

כַּֽ⁠אֲשֶׁר֙ שָׁמַ֣ע עַבְדֶּ֔⁠ךָ & הַגֶּד־נָ֖א לְ⁠עַבְדֶּ֑⁠ךָ

just_as, heard servant_of,your & tell now to,servant_of,your

David is speaking about himself in the third person as a way of showing respect to Yahweh. If it would be helpful in your language, you could translate this in the first person. Alternate translation: [just as I, your servant, have heard … please declare to me, your servant]
