Couple of things here, Tony.

1) You can "chain" xpaths together.
2) Learn all of the Xpaths Axes (sp?)!

In this case, you could grab the objectID of the node element with an objectID of 2134 like this:

//[EMAIL PROTECTED]/parent::node

Notice the reference to the exact node, and then a reference to the "parent" axis, asking for a "node" element.

Hope this helps.
