The word "sabes" in Spanish is the conjugated form of the verb "saber" which means "to know."

The verb has been conjugated in the 2nd person, singular. In Spanish it is not customary to use pronouns like "I, you, he" because this information is encoded in the verb conjugation itself.

Accordingly the best translation of "sabes" is probably "thou knowest" but since thou is archaic in English, I would suggest "you know" as a good alternative. If it comes paired with the word "tú" like "tú sabes" that would translate as "you do know..." since, as I stated above, it is not customary to use pronouns in Spanish except for emphasis.

Examples:

¿Sabes a qué hora llega el tren? (Do you know what time the train arrives?)

Como tú sabes ella está casada. (As you well know, she is married.)
