not so (Some words not found in UHB: that/for/because/then/when not so house?_of,[is]_my with god that/for/because/then/when covenant_of everlasting made to=me ordered in,everything and,preserved that/for/because/then/when all salvation_of,my and=all desire that/for/because/then/when not prosper )
David is using the question form to make a strong statement about how God has blessed his family. 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: [that is the way my house is with God!]
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy
בֵּיתִ֖י
(Some words not found in UHB: that/for/because/then/when not so house?_of,[is]_my with god that/for/because/then/when covenant_of everlasting made to=me ordered in,everything and,preserved that/for/because/then/when all salvation_of,my and=all desire that/for/because/then/when not prosper )
As in [1:12](../01/12.md) and similar contexts, house here means all the people descended from a particular person. It envisions them as if they were one household living together. In this specific context, David is using the term house to mean his dynasty, his royal line of descendants who would rule after him. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [my royal dynasty]

(Some words not found in UHB: that/for/because/then/when not so house?_of,[is]_my with god that/for/because/then/when covenant_of everlasting made to=me ordered in,everything and,preserved that/for/because/then/when all salvation_of,my and=all desire that/for/because/then/when not prosper )
Here the word For introduces not a reason but an explanation. Use a connecting word or phrase that would indicate this in your language. Alternate translation: [I say this because he has made]
Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive
עֲרוּכָ֤ה בַכֹּל֙ וּשְׁמֻרָ֔ה
ordered (Some words not found in UHB: that/for/because/then/when not so house?_of,[is]_my with god that/for/because/then/when covenant_of everlasting made to=me ordered in,everything and,preserved that/for/because/then/when all salvation_of,my and=all desire that/for/because/then/when not prosper )
The expressions ordered and secured are passive verbal forms. If your language would not use those forms, you could express the idea in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. Alternate translation: [and he has ordered it in everything and secured it]

Here the word For introduces not a reason but an explanation. Use a connecting word or phrase that would indicate this in your language. Alternate translation: [Indeed, all my salvation]
Note 7 topic: figures-of-speech / rquestion
כָל־יִשְׁעִ֥י וְכָל־חֵ֖פֶץ כִּֽי־לֹ֥א יַצְמִֽיחַ

David is using the question form to emphasize that God will certainly do what he is describing. 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: [he will certainly make sprout all my salvation and every desire!]
Note 8 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor
כָל־יִשְׁעִ֥י וְכָל־חֵ֖פֶץ כִּֽי־לֹ֥א יַצְמִֽיחַ

Here David is speaking of his salvation and desire as if they were plants that God would cause to grow. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [he will certainly bring about all my salvation and every desire]
Note 9 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns
כָל־יִשְׁעִ֥י וְכָל־חֵ֖פֶץ כִּֽי־לֹ֥א יַצְמִֽיחַ

If your language does not use abstract nouns for the ideas of salvation and desire, you could express the same ideas in other ways. Alternate translation: [he will certainly save me completely and give me everything that I desire]

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.
