2 SAM 19:34 Parallel Verse View

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.

כַּ⁠מָּ֗ה יְמֵי֙ שְׁנֵ֣י חַיַּ֔⁠י כִּי־אֶעֱלֶ֥ה אֶת־הַ⁠מֶּ֖לֶךְ יְרוּשָׁלִָֽם

Barzillai is using the question form for emphasis. 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: [The days of the years of my life will not be many more, that I should go up with the king to Jerusalem!]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / explicitinfo

יְמֵי֙ שְׁנֵ֣י חַיַּ֔⁠י

It might seem that the expression the days of the years of my life contains extra information that would not be natural to express in your language. If so, you could shorten it. Alternate translation: [will be the days of my life] or [will be the years of my life]

go_up

See how you translated the similar expression in [19:31](../19/31.md). Alternate translation: [I should go]
