Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy
(Occurrence 0) not even in your mind
(Some words not found in UHB: also/yet in/on/at/with,thoughts_of,your king not curse and,in/on/at/with,rooms_of bed_of,your not curse rich that/for/because/then/when bird the=heavens carry DOM the,voice and,bird_of the, report matter )
A person’s thoughts are represented by the person’s “mind.” Alternate translation: “not even in your thoughts”
(Occurrence 0) rich people in your bedroom
(Some words not found in UHB: also/yet in/on/at/with,thoughts_of,your king not curse and,in/on/at/with,rooms_of bed_of,your not curse rich that/for/because/then/when bird the=heavens carry DOM the,voice and,bird_of the, report matter )
“rich people when you are in your bedroom.” This means that you should not curse rich people even when you are in a private place where no one else will hear.
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / parallelism
(Occurrence 0) For a bird of the sky … can spread the matter
(Some words not found in UHB: also/yet in/on/at/with,thoughts_of,your king not curse and,in/on/at/with,rooms_of bed_of,your not curse rich that/for/because/then/when bird the=heavens carry DOM the,voice and,bird_of the, report matter )
These two lines mean basically the same thing and are combined for emphasis. This speaks of people finding out what you have said as if a small bird would hear what you say and tell other people. Alternate translation: “For a bird may hear what you say and tell the matter to other people” (See also: figs-metaphor)
10:20 It is often a mystery how someone knows what we have said. The best way to control our reputation is to control our thoughts.

Note: The OET-RV is still only a first draft, and so far only a few words have been (mostly automatically) matched to the Hebrew or Greek words that they’re translated from.
Acknowledgements: The Hebrew text, lemmas, and morphology are all thanks to the OSHB and some of the glosses are from Macula Hebrew.
