UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

(Occurrence 0) You are my brothers, my flesh and bone

(Some words not found in UHB: and,the,king Dāvid Shalah to/towards Tsādōq/(Zadok) and=near/to ʼEⱱyātār the,priests to=say say to/towards elders_of Yehuda to=say to/for=what be last to,bring_~_back DOM the=king to/towards house_of,his and,talk_of all/each/any/every Yisrael he/it_came to/towards the=king to/towards house_of,his )

The king uses these to phrases to emphasize that they are closely related. Being or having the same flesh is a metaphor for belonging to the same family or tribe. Alternate translation: “You are my brothers, and we have the same flesh and bone” or “You are my brothers, my close relatives”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / rquestion

(Occurrence 0) Why then are you the last to bring back the king?

This is the second rhetorical question here and it is also a rebuke for the elders of Judah. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express this question as a statement. Alternate translation: “You should have been the first, not the last, to bring back the king.”
