כָּ֖כָה אָמַ֣ר הַ⁠מֶּ֑לֶךְ בָּר֨וּךְ יְהוָ֜ה אֱלֹהֵ֣י יִשְׂרָאֵ֗ל אֲשֶׁ֨ר נָתַ֥ן הַ⁠יּ֛וֹם יֹשֵׁ֥ב עַל־כִּסְאִ֖⁠י וְ⁠עֵינַ֥⁠י רֹאֽוֹת

If it would be clearer in your language, you could translate this so that there is not a quotation within a quotation. Alternate translation: “the king blessed Yahweh the God of Israel, who had given one sitting on his throne today, while his eyes were seeing”

Note 2 topic: translate-symaction

יֹשֵׁ֥ב עַל־כִּסְאִ֖⁠י

was_sitting on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in throne_of,my

When a person sits on a throne, it indicates that the person has power and rules as king. If it would be helpful in your language, you could explain what this action means. See how you expressed the idea in [1:13](../01/13.md). Alternate translation: “one sitting on my throne to rule” or “one sitting on my throne as king”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom

וְ⁠עֵינַ֥⁠י רֹאֽוֹת

and,eyes_of,my seeing

Here, the phrase my eyes are seeing indicates that David is still alive and can witness the event of which he speaks. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a comparable phrase or state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “and I am still here to see it” or “and I am still living”
