וַיִּגְדַּ֖ל שְׁמוּאֵ֑ל וַֽיהוָה֙ הָיָ֣ה עִמּ֔וֹ וְלֹֽא־הִפִּ֥יל מִכָּל־דְּבָרָ֖יו אָֽרְצָה
and,grew_up Shəmū\sup_ʼēl/(Samuel) and=YHWH it_became with=him/it and=not fall from=all words_of,his ground,to
Here and in the next two verses, the author is describing what happened at the end of the story of Samuel coming to know Yahweh. Your language may have its own way of presenting such information.
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom
וַֽיהוָה֙ הָיָ֣ה עִמּ֔וֹ
and=YHWH it_became with=him/it
The author is using a common expression of his culture to mean that Yahweh helped Samuel. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation, as in the UST: “and Yahweh helped him]
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor
וְלֹֽא־הִפִּ֥יל מִכָּל־דְּבָרָ֖יו אָֽרְצָה
and=not fall from=all words_of,his ground,to
The author is speaking as if words were physical objects that could fall to the ground. The suggestion is that Samuel’s words were never lost or ruined as things do that people drop or let fall, in other words, what he said always came true. If it would be clearer in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [and he made sure that everything Samuel said came true]
Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy
הִפִּ֥יל מִכָּל־דְּבָרָ֖יו
fall from=all words_of,his
The author is using the term words by association to mean what Samuel said by using words. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use an equivalent expression or plain language. Alternate translation: [everything he said]
