Click on any Bible version abbreviation down the left-hand side to see the verse in more of its context.

וּ⁠פְלִשְׁתִּ֖ים נִלְחָמִ֣ים בְּ⁠יִשְׂרָאֵ֑ל

and,Philistines fought in/on/at/with,Israel

The author is resuming the story of the Philistine attack against Israel after relating in the previous two chapters the episode of David and his men leaving the Philistine army and rescuing their families and possessions from the Amalekites. The author is resuming the action from where it left off at [29:1](../29/01.md), where the Israelites and Philistines were facing each other in battle positions. Use a word, phrase, or other method here that is natural in your language for resuming a story after relating another episode.

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / synecdoche

מִ⁠פְּנֵ֣י פְלִשְׁתִּ֔ים

from=face/in_front_of Fəlishtiy

The author is using one part of the Philistines, their face, to mean all of them in the act of attacking. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [from the attacking Philistines]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy

חֲלָלִ֖ים

slain

The author is using the term pierced by association to mean those who died from being pierced by swords or other weapons. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use an equivalent expression or plain language. Alternate translation: [dead]
