Qov, you're not paying attention to the way Klingon reported speech 
works.  What did your husband say?  Did he say "I need to sleep" or 
did he say "you need to sleep"?  The latter: his need to sleep 
doesn't affect KLBCs.  Therefore in Klingon when you report what was said:

{bIQongnIS jatlh}  "He said I needed to sleep."
{jIQongnIS jatlh}  "He said he needed to sleep."
