See how you translated this expression in [2:6](../02/06.md).

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / rquestion

לָ⁠מָ֥ה אַתֶּ֛ם מַחֲרִשִׁ֖ים לְ⁠הָשִׁ֥יב אֶת־הַ⁠מֶּֽלֶךְ

,why? (Some words not found in UHB: and,Absalom which/who anointed over,us died in,battle and=now ,why? you(pl) say_nothing to,bring_back DOM the,king )

The people are using the question form to criticize those who are not taking action to bring back the king. If a speaker of your language would not use the question form for that purpose, you could translate this as a statement or as an exclamation. Alternate translation: [you should not be silent about bringing back the king!]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / yousingular

לָ⁠מָ֥ה אַתֶּ֛ם מַחֲרִשִׁ֖ים

,why? (Some words not found in UHB: and,Absalom which/who anointed over,us died in,battle and=now ,why? you(pl) say_nothing to,bring_back DOM the,king )

The word you is plural here because groups of Israelites are addressing one another, so use the plural form in your translation if your language marks that distinction.

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy

לָ⁠מָ֥ה אַתֶּ֛ם מַחֲרִשִׁ֖ים

,why? (Some words not found in UHB: and,Absalom which/who anointed over,us died in,battle and=now ,why? you(pl) say_nothing to,bring_back DOM the,king )

Here, being silent represents not taking action. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use an equivalent expression or plain language. Alternate translation: [why are you doing nothing]
