Exegesis
The clause ki-tihyū-lî lə-sāṭān {כִּי־תִהְיוּ־לִּי לְשָׂטָן | kî-tih-yū-lî lə-sā-ṭān} employs the Qal imperfect with jussive nuance to express potential opposition, and the noun satan ‘adversary’ underscores intra-court conflict.
In context — 2 Samuel 19:22
And David said, “What is it to me and to you, sons of Zeruiah , that you should become for me an adversary today? Shall any man in Israel be put to death today? For do I not know that today I am king over Israel?”
