OET (OET-RV) I’m fading away like a shadow in the late afternoon.
⇔ I’m shaken off like a locust.

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / simile

כְּ⁠צֵל־כִּ⁠נְטוֹת֥⁠וֹ

(Some words not found in UHB: like,a_shadow just,as,it_stretches_out fade_away shaken_off like,locust )

The point of this comparison is that just as a shadow when it lengthens quickly disappears, so David’s life is quickly passing away. If it would be helpful in your language, you could make this point explicitly. Alternate translation: [Like how quickly a shadow disappears as it lengthens]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

נֶהֱלָ֑כְתִּי

(Some words not found in UHB: like,a_shadow just,as,it_stretches_out fade_away shaken_off like,locust )

The expression I am made to go contains a passive verbal form. If it would be unnatural to use that form, you could express the idea in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. Alternate translation: [I will leave]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

נִ֝נְעַ֗רְתִּי כָּֽ⁠אַרְבֶּֽה

(Some words not found in UHB: like,a_shadow just,as,it_stretches_out fade_away shaken_off like,locust )

The expression I am shaken off contains a passive verbal form. If it would be unnatural to use that form, you could express the idea in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. Alternate translation: [I will fall off like a locust]

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / simile

נִ֝נְעַ֗רְתִּי כָּֽ⁠אַרְבֶּֽה

(Some words not found in UHB: like,a_shadow just,as,it_stretches_out fade_away shaken_off like,locust )

David is making a comparison. The point of this comparison is that just as a locust is easily shaken off, so David is easily dismissed or removed from his position. If it would be helpful in your language, you could make this point explicitly. Alternate translation: [I will disappear as quickly as someone shakes off a locust]
