11:6 OSHB note: We agree with both BHS 1997 and BHQ on an unexpected reading.
OET (OET-RV) Sow your seed in the morning
⇔ and don’t stop planting until the evening,
⇔ because you don’t know which areas will grow well,
⇔ or whether it will all succeed equally.

(Occurrence 0) work with your hands
(Some words not found in UHB: in/on/at/with,morning sow DOM seed_of,your and,at_the,evening not rest hands_of,your that/for/because/then/when not,you know where? this succeed whether,this or this and=if both_of=them as,equal good )
Here “hands” represents the whole person. Alternate translation: “keep on working”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / doublet
(Occurrence 0) whether morning or evening, or this or that
(Some words not found in UHB: in/on/at/with,morning sow DOM seed_of,your and,at_the,evening not rest hands_of,your that/for/because/then/when not,you know where? this succeed whether,this or this and=if both_of=them as,equal good )
These two phrases mean basically the same thing and emphasize that the person’s work may prosper, no matter what time he has done it. Alternate translation: “whether the seed that you planted in the morning or the seed that you planted in the evening” (See also: figs-ellipsis)
11:1-6 All profitable activity involves risk. We must act as wisely as we can and trust God for the result.

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.
