Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy
הֲלִיכ֣וֹת בֵּיתָ֑הּ
ways household,her
Here, the goings on of her house could refer to: (1) what happens inside her home. Alternate translation: “what happens in her home” (2) what the people who live in her house do, in which case her house has the same meaning as in 31:15. Alternate translation: “what her family does”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor
וְלֶ֥חֶם עַ֝צְל֗וּת לֹ֣א תֹאכֵֽל
and,bread idleness not eat
Here, Lemuel’s mother speaks of someone being lazy as if laziness were bread that a person eats. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “and she does not act idly”
