UTNuW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: writing-oathformula

וַ⁠יִּשָּׁבַע֙ הַ⁠מֶּ֣לֶךְ שְׁלֹמֹ֔ה בַּֽ⁠יהוָ֖ה

and,swore the=king Shəlmoh in/on/at/with,LORD

Here Solomon swears an oath by Yahweh. Use a natural way in your language to introduce an oath. Alternate translation: “And the king Solomon swore before Yahweh” or “And the king Solomon solemnly promised Yahweh”

Note 2 topic: writing-quotations

לֵ⁠אמֹ֑ר

to=say

Consider natural ways of introducing direct quotations in your language. Alternate translation: “and he said”

Note 3 topic: writing-oathformula

כֹּ֣ה יַֽעֲשֶׂה־לִּ֤⁠י אֱלֹהִים֙ וְ⁠כֹ֣ה יוֹסִ֔יף כִּ֣י בְ⁠נַפְשׁ֔⁠וֹ דִּבֶּר֙ אֲדֹ֣נִיָּ֔הוּ אֶת־הַ⁠דָּבָ֖ר הַ⁠זֶּֽה

so do to/for=me ʼₑlhīmv and,also more that/for/because/then/when in/on/at/with,life,his he/it_had_said Adonijah DOM the,request the,this

Here Solomon asks God to do bad things to him, and to add even more bad things, if what he is about to say is not true. He only states what is true about Adonijah, but he implies that the oath will apply if what he says is not true. Use a natural way in your language to express an oath. If it would be helpful in your language, you could include the implied part of the oath. Alternate translation: “Thus may God do evil to me, and thus may he add even more evil, if it is not true that by his life Adonijah has spoken this word” or “May God cause very many bad things to happen to me unless by his life Adonijah has spoken this word”

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom

בְ⁠נַפְשׁ֔⁠וֹ דִּבֶּר֙ אֲדֹ֣נִיָּ֔הוּ אֶת־הַ⁠דָּבָ֖ר הַ⁠זֶּֽה

in/on/at/with,life,his he/it_had_said Adonijah DOM the,request the,this

Here, the phrase by his life could indicate that: (1) Adonijah risked his life by asking to marry Abishag. Alternate translation: “Adonijah has risked his life by speaking this word” (2) Adonijah would die for asking to marry Abishag. Alternate translation: “Adonijah will die for speaking this word”

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns

בְ⁠נַפְשׁ֔⁠וֹ

in/on/at/with,life,his

If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea of life, you could express the same idea in another way. Alternate translation: “by how he lives”

Note 6 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy

אֶת־הַ⁠דָּבָ֖ר הַ⁠זֶּֽה

DOM the,request the,this

Here, word represents what Adonijah asked using words. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use an equivalent expression from your language or state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “this request”
