26:18-19 Lies are extremely dangerous because they lead people to act on false information. Liars cannot cover up later by claiming that they were only joking (see 6:16-19; 14:5, 25; 25:18).

כְּֽ֭מִתְלַהְלֵהַּ הַיֹּרֶ֥ה זִקִּ֗ים חִצִּ֥ים וָמָֽוֶת
like,madman the,throws firebrands arrows and,deadly
Like in this verse and so in the next verse indicate that Solomon is comparing an insane one who shoots arrows, firebrands, and death with a man who deceives his neighbor and says, “Was I not joking?” The point is that these are harmful and dangerous acts. If it would be helpful in your language, you could make this more explicit. Alternate translation: “Just as an insane one who shoots firebrands, arrows, and death is reckless”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / hendiadys
חִצִּ֥ים וָמָֽוֶת
arrows and,deadly
The two words arrows and death express a single idea. The word death describes a characteristic of the arrows. If it would be more natural in your language, you could express this meaning in a different way. Alternate translation: “and arrows that kill”
