Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor
הִנֵּ֗ה
see/lo/see!
Nathan is using the term Behold to draw attention to what he plans to do while Bathsheba is talking with David. Your language may have a comparable way of calling attention to this event that you can use in your translation. Alternate translation: “After that” or “Right away”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / rpronouns
וַאֲנִי֙ אָב֣וֹא
and,I come_in
Nathan uses the word myself to emphasize how significant it will be that he will come in. Use a way that is natural in your language to indicate this significance. Alternate translation: “then I, yes I, will come in”
אַחֲרַ֔יִךְ
after,you
Alternate translation: “after you do”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor
וּמִלֵּאתִ֖י אֶת־דְּבָרָֽיִךְ
and,confirm DOM words_of,your
Here Nathan speaks as if Bathsheba’s words were containers that were partly full and that he would fill them up completely. He means that he will confirm that what Bathsheba has said is true. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a comparable figure of speech or state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “and will testify to the truth of your words” or “and confirm what you have said”
1:11-14 Bathsheba was Solomon’s mother and David’s favored wife. Their affair led to the death of Bathsheba’s husband, Uriah the Hittite (see 2 Sam 11:1-27).
• Nathan, the prophet who revealed God’s covenant with David (2 Sam 7:1-17) and announced God’s love for Solomon at his birth (2 Sam 12:24-25), confirmed God’s selection of Solomon to succeed David as king (see 1 Chr 28:4-7). Although Nathan had sharply rebuked David for his affair with Bathsheba and his murder of Uriah (2 Sam 12:1-15), the king respected the prophet.
• Adonijah certainly observed Nathan’s close association with Bathsheba and Solomon. All three could expect to be killed if Adonijah’s plot to seize the throne succeeded (see 1 Kgs 15:29; 16:11).

Note: The OET-RV is still only a first draft, and so far only a few words have been (mostly automatically) matched to the Hebrew or Greek words that they’re translated from.
