16:11 Then David said to Abishai and to all his servants, “My own son, my very own flesh and blood, 3  is trying to take my life. So also now this Benjaminite! Leave him alone so that he can curse, for the Lord has spoken to him.

[4:11]  1 tn Heb “on his bed.”

[4:11]  2 tn See HALOT 146 s.v. II בער. Some derive the verb from a homonym meaning “to burn; to consume.”

[16:11]  3 tn Heb “who came out from my entrails.” David’s point is that is his own son, his child whom he himself had fathered, was now wanting to kill him.
