Note: This view shows ‘verses’ which are not necessarily natural language units and hence sometimes only part of a sentence will be visible—click on any Bible version abbreviation down the left-hand side to see the verse in more of its context. Normally the OET discourages the reading of individual ‘verses’, but this view is only designed as a tool for Bible-translators and others doing comparisons of different translations—the older translations are further down the page (so you can read up from the bottom to trace the English translation history). The OET segments on this page are still early looks into the drafted texts of the Open English Translation of the Bible—please double-check these texts in advance before using in public.

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / doublenegatives

אַל־יַחֲשָׁב־לִ֣⁠י אֲדֹנִ⁠י֮ עָוֺן֒

not (Some words not found in UHB: and=he/it_said to/towards the=king not hold to=me my=master guilty and,do_not remember DOM which/who did_wrong servant_of,your in_the=day which/who left my=master the=king from,Jerusalem to,set_[it] the=king to/towards his/its=heart )

This is a double negative, consisting of the negative particle not and the verb reckon, which in this context would be negative. If it would be clearer in your language, you could use a positive expression to translate this. Alternate translation: [May my lord please forgive my iniquity]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / 123person

אֲדֹנִ⁠י֮ & אֲדֹנִֽ⁠י־הַ⁠מֶּ֖לֶךְ & הַ⁠מֶּ֖לֶךְ

my=master & my=master (Some words not found in UHB: and=he/it_said to/towards the=king not hold to=me my=master guilty and,do_not remember DOM which/who did_wrong servant_of,your in_the=day which/who left my=master the=king from,Jerusalem to,set_[it] the=king to/towards his/its=heart )

Even though Shimei is addressing David directly, he is speaking of him in the third person as my lord, my lord the king, and 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. See the discussion in the Introduction to this chapter of speakers using the third person either for themselves, to show humility (as Shimei does later in this verse), or for people whom they are addressing directly, to show respect. Use the appropriate forms in your language throughout the chapter. Alternate translation: [you, my lord … you, my lord the king … you]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom

וְ⁠אַל־תִּזְכֹּ֗ר אֵ֚ת אֲשֶׁ֣ר הֶעֱוָ֣ה עַבְדְּ⁠ךָ֔

and,do_not (Some words not found in UHB: and=he/it_said to/towards the=king not hold to=me my=master guilty and,do_not remember DOM which/who did_wrong servant_of,your in_the=day which/who left my=master the=king from,Jerusalem to,set_[it] the=king to/towards his/its=heart )

Shimei is using may you not remember as a common expression of his culture to mean “may you not punish.” 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 may you not punish your servant for the iniquity that he committed]

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / 123person

עַבְדְּ⁠ךָ֔

(Some words not found in UHB: and=he/it_said to/towards the=king not hold to=me my=master guilty and,do_not remember DOM which/who did_wrong servant_of,your in_the=day which/who left my=master the=king from,Jerusalem to,set_[it] the=king to/towards his/its=heart )

Shimei is speaking of himself in the third person as your servant to show humility. If it would be helpful in your language, you could translate this in a humble form in the first person. Alternate translation: [me, your servant]

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom

לָ⁠שׂ֥וּם הַ⁠מֶּ֖לֶךְ אֶל־לִבּֽ⁠וֹ

See how you translated the similar expression in [13:20](../13/20.md). Alternate translation: [Please do not take it to heart] or [Please do not hold it against me]
