Even though Abner is addressing David directly, he is speaking of him in the third person as my lord the king to show respect. If it would be helpful in your language, you could translate this in a respectful form in the second person. Alternate translation: [to you, my lord the king]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / hyperbole

אֶת־כָּל־יִשְׂרָאֵ֗ל

DOM DOM (Some words not found in UHB: and=he/it_said ʼAⱱnēr to/towards Dāvid arise and,let_me_go and,let_me_gather to/towards my=master the=king DOM all/each/any/every Yisrael so,that_they_may_make with,you covenant and,you_will_reign over,all which/who desires self_of,your and,he_sent_away Dāvid DOM ʼAⱱnēr and=he/it_went in,peace )

Abner says all of Israel as an generalization for emphasis. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a different way to express the emphasis. Alternate translation: [leaders from throughout Israel]
