כִּמְעַ֞ט יַעֲבֹ֧ר עַבְדְּךָ֛ אֶת־הַיַּרְדֵּ֖ן אֶת־הַמֶּ֑לֶךְ
(Some words not found in UHB: son_of eighty year I the=day do,I_know? between good and,evil if taste servant_of,your DOM which/who eats and=DOM which/who drinks if hear again/more (in)_the,voice_of singing and,female_singers and=for=what? will_belong servant_of,your again/more (into)_a,burden to/towards my=master the,king )
Going across the Jordan with the king was a symbolic action by which Barzillai showed respect and honor to David, even though he would only go a short distance beyond the river. If it would be helpful to your readers, you could explain the significance of this action in the text of your translation or in a footnote. Alternate translation: [To show respect and honor, according to a little your servant will go across the Jordan with the king]
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / rquestion
וְלָ֨מָּה֙ יִגְמְלֵ֣נִי הַמֶּ֔לֶךְ הַגְּמוּלָ֖ה הַזֹּֽאת
(Some words not found in UHB: son_of eighty year I the=day do,I_know? between good and,evil if taste servant_of,your DOM which/who eats and=DOM which/who drinks if hear again/more (in)_the,voice_of singing and,female_singers and=for=what? will_belong servant_of,your again/more (into)_a,burden to/towards my=master the,king )
Barzillai is using the question form for emphasis. 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: [But the king does not need to reward me this reward]
Note 3 topic: writing-poetry
יִגְמְלֵ֣נִי & הַגְּמוּלָ֖ה הַזֹּֽאת
(Some words not found in UHB: son_of eighty year I the=day do,I_know? between good and,evil if taste servant_of,your DOM which/who eats and=DOM which/who drinks if hear again/more (in)_the,voice_of singing and,female_singers and=for=what? will_belong servant_of,your again/more (into)_a,burden to/towards my=master the,king )
Barzillai is using a construction in which a verb and its object come from the same root. You may be able to use the same construction in your language to express the meaning here. Alternatively, your language may have another way of saying this. Alternate translation: [reward me so generously]

Note: The OET-RV is still only a first draft, and so far only a few words have been (mostly automatically) matched to the Hebrew or Greek words that they’re translated from.
Acknowledgements: The Hebrew text, lemmas, and morphology are all thanks to the OSHB and some of the glosses are from Macula Hebrew.
