וַאֲנִי֙ אֶעֱשֶׂה־לּ֔וֹ
(Some words not found in UHB: return now servant_of,your so,that_I_may_die in,my_own_of,city with tomb_of my_father_of,my and,mother_of,my and=see/lo/see! servant_of,your Kimhām/(Chimham) cross_over with my=master the=king and,do to=him/it DOM which/who good in,eyes_of,your )
David is stating the pronoun I separately, even though the verb translated as I shall do already includes this meaning. He is doing that because he is making a promise to Barzillai. If a speaker of your language would use an explicit pronoun for the same purpose, you may want to use that construction in your translation. If not, your language may have other ways of showing that David is making a promise to Barzillai. It may not be necessary to represent the separately stated pronoun explicitly. Alternate translation: [and I promise that I shall do for him]
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / nominaladj
אֶת־הַטּ֖וֹב
(Some words not found in UHB: return now servant_of,your so,that_I_may_die in,my_own_of,city with tomb_of my_father_of,my and,mother_of,my and=see/lo/see! servant_of,your Kimhām/(Chimham) cross_over with my=master the=king and,do to=him/it DOM which/who good in,eyes_of,your )
The king is using the adjective good as a noun to mean a certain kind of thing. Your language may use adjectives in the same way. If not, you can translate this adjective with an equivalent phrase. Alternate translation: [what is good]
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom
וְכֹ֛ל אֲשֶׁר־תִּבְחַ֥ר עָלַ֖י
(Some words not found in UHB: return now servant_of,your so,that_I_may_die in,my_own_of,city with tomb_of my_father_of,my and,mother_of,my and=see/lo/see! servant_of,your Kimhām/(Chimham) cross_over with my=master the=king and,do to=him/it DOM which/who good in,eyes_of,your )
The king is using choose upon me as a common expression of his culture to mean “require of me.” If this phrase does not have that meaning in your language, you could use a comparable expression from your language that does have that meaning, or you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [And all that you require of me]

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.
