1 Samuel 10:14

Hebrew	וַיֹּאמֶר֩ דּ֨וֹד שָׁא֥וּל אֵלָ֛יו וְאֶֽל נַעֲר֖וֹ אָ֣ן הֲלַכְתֶּ֑ם וַיֹּ֕אמֶר לְבַקֵּשׁ֙ אֶתplugin-autotooltip__default plugin-autotooltip_bigאֵת hebrew The Hebrew אֵת word does not have a corresponding word in English. In Hebrew, it is a marker of the accusative, i.e. the word following it is the object of the sentence. For example, in Genesis 1:1 the word is preceded by בָּרָ֣א אֱלֹהִ֑ים ( הָ֣אֲתֹנ֔וֹת וַנִּרְאֶ֣ה כִי אַ֔יִן וַנָּב֖וֹא אֶל שְׁמוּאֵֽל
ESV	Saul's uncle said to him and to his servant, “Where did you go?” And he said, “To seek the donkeys. And when we saw they were not to be found, we went to Samuel.”
NIV	Now Saul's uncle asked him and his servant, “Where have you been?Looking for the donkeys,” he said. “But when we saw they were not to be found, we went to Samuel.”
NLT	“Where have you been?” Saul's uncle asked him and his servant.“We were looking for the donkeys,” Saul replied, “but we couldn't find them. So we went to Samuel to ask him where they were.”
