uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: translate-symaction

וַ⁠תִּקֹּ֨ד בַּת־שֶׁ֤בַע אַפַּ֨יִם֙ אֶ֔רֶץ וַ⁠תִּשְׁתַּ֖חוּ לַ⁠מֶּ֑לֶךְ

and,bowed daughter_of seven face earth/land and,did_obeisance to/for=the_king

In Bathsheba’s culture, when people bowed and prostrated themselves to someone else, they were honoring respecting that person. The author describes how Bathsheba’s nostrils were to the ground to indicate that Bathsheba lay down with her face on the ground, which was a way to show even more honor or respect. If it would be helpful in your language, you could explain what this action means. Alternate translation: “And Bathsheba bowed and prostrated herself to the king in deep respect, with her nose touching the ground” or “And Bathsheba, to honor the king greatly, bowed and prostrated herself upon the ground”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / parallelism

וַ⁠תִּקֹּ֨ד בַּת־שֶׁ֤בַע אַפַּ֨יִם֙ אֶ֔רֶץ וַ⁠תִּשְׁתַּ֖חוּ לַ⁠מֶּ֑לֶךְ

and,bowed daughter_of seven face earth/land and,did_obeisance to/for=the_king

The phrases bowed, nostrils to the ground and prostrated herself mean similar things. The author is using the two phrases together for emphasis. If it would be clearer for your readers, you could express the emphasis with a single phrase. Alternate translation: “And Bathsheba bowed, nostrils to the ground, very respectfully to the king” or “And Bathsheba prostrated herself, nostrils to the ground, to the king”

Note 3 topic: writing-politeness

יְחִ֗י אֲדֹנִ֛⁠י הַ⁠מֶּ֥לֶךְ דָּוִ֖ד לְ⁠עֹלָֽם

live my=master the=king Dāvid to=vanishing_point

Here, the phrase May my lord the king David live to eternity is a polite way to wish that David will have a long and good life. This was a respectful way to honor and bless a person in authority. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a comparable polite form or make the idea more explicit. Alternate translation: “I hope that my lord the king David will have a long life” or “I wish my lord the king David well”

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / 123person

אֲדֹנִ֛⁠י הַ⁠מֶּ֥לֶךְ דָּוִ֖ד

my=master the=king Dāvid

Here Bathsheba addresses king David in the third person as a sign of respect. If this would not be natural in your language, you could use the second-person form and indicate the respect in another way. Alternate translation: “you, my lord the king David,”

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns

לְ⁠עֹלָֽם

to=vanishing_point

If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea of eternity, you could express the same idea in another way. Alternate translation: “eternally” or “forever”

TSN Tyndale Study Notes:

1:31-32 David affirmed his pledge by ordering a public display of support by the priestly, prophetic, and military representatives, Zadok, Nathan, and Benaiah.
