Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom

בֶן־מָ֔וֶת

son_of die

In certain contexts, biblical authors and characters use the expression son of to indicate that a person has the characteristic of something. In this case, David is saying that the rich man has the characteristic of death, in the sense that David feels he deserves to die for what he did. If it would be helpful to your readers, you could use an equivalent expression from your language or state the meaning plainly. If you have already translated the book of 1 Samuel, see how you translated the similar expression in 1 Samuel 26:16. Alternate translation: [deserves to die]
