TSNTyndale Study Notes:

7:17 don’t be too wicked either: Wicked foolishness can lead to an early death (e.g., 1 Sam 25).


UTNuW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / rquestion

(Occurrence 0) Why should you die before your time?

(Some words not found in UHB: not wicked excessively and,not be fool to/for=what die in/on/at/with,before time,your )

The author uses this rhetorical question to emphasize that there is no reason for people to do things that will cause them to die early. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express this question as a statement. Alternate translation: “There is no reason for you to die sooner than you should.”
