TSNTyndale Study Notes:

6:9 sing her praises: Literally called her blessed. If the Song is a drama, the woman has left Solomon’s harem, and the singing took place in the past, when the woman was still there.


UTNuW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

אַחַ֥ת הִיא֙

one(fs) she/it

Here, the phrase One is she means “She is special” (the number One is used in contrast to the large numbers of other women described in the previous verse). If it would be helpful to your readers, you could indicate that explicitly. Alternate translation: “She is special” or “She is unique” or “She is special in comparison to other women”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

יוֹנָתִ֣⁠י תַמָּתִ֔⁠י

dove,my perfect,my

See how you translated the phrases my dove and my perfect one in 5:2.

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

אַחַ֥ת הִיא֙ לְ⁠אִמָּ֔⁠הּ

one(fs) she/it one(fs) she/it of,mother,her

The phrase one is she to her mother could mean: (1) that the woman the man loves is special to her mother (with one being used in contrast to the large numbers of other women described in the previous verse). Alternate translation: “she is special to her mother” or “her mother thinks she is special” or “her mother thinks she is unique” (2) that the woman was the only child or the only daughter that her mother had. Alternate translation: “she is the only child of her mother” or “her mother’s only daughter” or “she is the only child of her mother”

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

בָּרָ֥ה הִ֖יא לְ⁠יֽוֹלַדְתָּ֑⁠הּ

favourite she/it to,bore,her

The phrase pure is she to the woman who bore her could mean: (1) that the woman was her mother’s favorite child or favorite daughter. Alternate translation: “the favorite child of the woman who bore her” or “the favorite daughter of the woman who bore her” (2) that the woman was pure or flawless in some way. Alternate translation: “flawless is she to the woman who bore her”

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / parallelism

אַחַ֥ת הִיא֙ לְ⁠אִמָּ֔⁠הּ בָּרָ֥ה הִ֖יא לְ⁠יֽוֹלַדְתָּ֑⁠הּ

one(fs) she/it one(fs) she/it of,mother,her favourite she/it to,bore,her

If you decided that one means “special” here and that pure means “favorite” then these two lines are parallel and mean basically the same thing because both these words then have similar meanings and the phrases her mother and the woman who bore her both mean the same thing. The second line is emphasizing the meaning of the first by repeating the same idea with different words which is common in Hebrew poetry. It would be good to show this repetition to your readers by including both phrases in your translation rather than combining them. However, if it would be helpful to your readers, you could combine these two lines into one. Alternate translation: “her mother thinks that she is very special” or “she is very special to her mother”

Note 6 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

בָנוֹת֙

maidens

Here, the word daughters could refer to: (1) the “marriageable women” in the previous verse. Alternate translation: “The marriageable women” or “the young women of the kings court” (2) young women in general, possibly “the daughters of Jerusalem" (young women of Jerusalem) mentioned several times earlier in the book. Alternate translation: “The young women”
