Note 1 topic: grammar-connect-logic-result

וְ⁠אִ֗ישׁ לֹֽא־אַכְרִ֤ית לְ⁠ךָ֙ מֵ⁠עִ֣ם מִזְבְּחִ֔⁠י לְ⁠כַלּ֥וֹת אֶת־עֵינֶ֖י⁠ךָ וְ⁠לַ⁠אֲדִ֣יב אֶת־נַפְשֶׁ֑⁠ךָ

and,one not cut_off to/for=yourself(m) from,at altar_of,my to,fail DOM eyes_of,your and,to,grieve DOM heart_of,your

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: [But to make your eyes fail and to make your soul grieve, I will not cut off a man to you from near my altar]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

לֹֽא־אַכְרִ֤ית

not cut_off

Yahweh is speaking as if he would cut off people from life. If it would be clearer in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [I will not kill]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / genericnoun

וְ⁠אִ֗ישׁ & לְ⁠ךָ֙

and,one & to/for=yourself(m)

Yahweh is not referring to a specific man. He means in general the men of Eli’s family. It may be more natural in your language to express this meaning by using a plural form. Alternate translation: [all the men in your family]

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / synecdoche

לְ⁠כַלּ֥וֹת אֶת־עֵינֶ֖י⁠ךָ וְ⁠לַ⁠אֲדִ֣יב אֶת־נַפְשֶׁ֑⁠ךָ

to,fail DOM eyes_of,your and,to,grieve DOM heart_of,your

Yahweh is using parts of Eli and his descendants, their eyes and souls, to mean all of them in the act of weeping and grieving. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [to make you and your descendants weep greatly and grieve deeply]

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy

וְ⁠כָל־מַרְבִּ֥ית בֵּיתְ⁠ךָ֖

and=all members_of household_of,your

Yahweh is using the term increase by association to further members who will be born into Eli’s family. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use an equivalent expression or plain language. Alternate translation: [And all those who are born into your family]

Note 6 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

אֲנָשִֽׁים

men

The specific term that Yahweh uses here for men indicates young men. You could state this explicitly in your translation if that would be helpful to your readers. Alternate translation: [as young men]
