# Turn and kill the priests ... turned and attacked the priests

Here "Turn" means to turn around or turn away from the king. See how you translated this in [1 Samuel 22:17](../22/17.md). Alternate translation: "Go and kill the priests ... went and attacked" or "Kill the priest ... attacked the priests" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-idiom]])

# Doeg the Edomite turned and attacked ... he killed ... He also put to the sword ... he put to the sword

Possible meanings are 1) Doeg killed all the priests himself or 2) the word "Doeg" is a synecdoche for Doeg and the men who went with him. Alternate translation: "Doeg and his men turned and attacked ... they killed ... They put to the sword ... they put to the sword" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-explicit]] and [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-synecdoche]])
