Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom
ט֑וֹב
good
Here, the word Good indicates that Bathsheba agrees that Adonijah’s request is appropriate and that she will ask the king about it. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a comparable phrase or state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “Okay” or “I think that is appropriate;”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / rpronouns
אָנֹכִ֕י אֲדַבֵּ֥ר
I speak
Bathsheba uses the word myself to emphasize that she is the one who speak to the king. Use a way that is natural in your language to indicate this emphasis. Alternate translation: “I am the one who will speak”
2:16-18 let me marry Abishag: Possessing the king’s concubine was a mark of royal legitimacy. When David became king, he was given Saul’s wives (2 Sam 12:7-8). The rebellious Absalom claimed David’s concubines (2 Sam 16:20-22).
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.
