See how you translated the similar expression in 16:4. Alternate translation: [And Ahimelech trembled with fear]
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / parallelism
מַדּ֤וּעַ אַתָּה֙ לְבַדֶּ֔ךָ וְאִ֖ישׁ אֵ֥ין אִתָּֽךְ
why (Some words not found in UHB: and,he_went Dāvid to,Nob to/towards ʼAḩīmelek the=priest/officer and,he_trembled ʼAḩīmelek to,meet Dāvid and=he/it_said to=him/it why you(ms) you,,alone and,anyone not with,you )
These two phrases mean basically the same thing. Ahimelech uses them together for emphasis. If it would be clearer in your language, you could combine them. Alternate translation: [Why have you come here all alone]
