Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns

בְּ⁠אֵ֣ין תַּ֭חְבֻּלוֹת & וּ֝⁠תְשׁוּעָ֗ה בְּ⁠רֹ֣ב יוֹעֵֽץ

in/on/at/with,there_is_no guidance & and,safety in/on/at/with,abundance counselors

If your language does not use abstract nouns for the ideas of directions, salvation, abundance, and counsel, you could express the same ideas in other ways. See how you translated abundance in 5:23 and counsel in 1:25. Alternate translation: “When no one directs … but many people counseling someone will save that person”

Note 2 topic: grammar-collectivenouns

עָ֑ם

nation

In this verse, the word people is singular in form, but it refers to multiple people as a group that could also be called a “nation” or “country.” If it would be helpful in your language, you could say this plainly. Alternate translation: “a group of people” or “a nation”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

יִפָּל

fall

See how you translated the same use of “fall” in 11:5.

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

וּ֝⁠תְשׁוּעָ֗ה בְּ⁠רֹ֣ב יוֹעֵֽץ

and,safety in/on/at/with,abundance counselors

Here Solomon is speaking of salvation as if it were an object that could be found in an abundance of counsel. He means that an abundance of counsel can result in salvation. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “but salvation is the result of an abundance of counsel”
