OET interlinear 2 SAM 17:6

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / quotations

לֵ⁠אמֹ֗ר כַּ⁠דָּבָ֤ר הַ⁠זֶּה֙ דִּבֶּ֣ר אֲחִיתֹ֔פֶל הֲ⁠נַעֲשֶׂ֖ה

to=say (Some words not found in UHB: and,he_came Ḩūshay to/towards ʼAⱱīshālōm and=he/it_said ʼAⱱīshālōm to=him/it to=say according,the_word the=this he/it_had_said ʼAḩītofel will,we_do? DOM word_of,his if not you(ms) tell )

If it would be more natural in your language, you could express the first part of this as an indirect quotation, since Absalom did not actually say According to this word. Rather, he gave Hushai a summary of what Ahithophel had said. Alternate translation: [and told him what Ahithophel had said. Then he asked, “Shall we do]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy

Absalom is using the term word to represent what Ahithophel said by using words. If it would be clearer in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [what he has recommended]
