uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / rquestion

מִ֣י יוֹדֵ֗עַ

who? knows

Solomon is using the question form to express that no one can know for certain what happens after death. If a speaker of your language would not use the question form for that purpose, you could translate this as a statement or as an exclamation. Alternate translation: [No one can know]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom

ר֚וּחַ בְּנֵ֣י הָ⁠אָדָ֔ם

spirit_of sons_of the=humankind

Solomon is using the sons of humanity as a common expression of the culture to mean “human beings.” If this phrase does not have that meaning for your readers, you could use a comparable expression from your language that does have that meaning, or you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [The spirit of human beings]

OET-LV Who is_knowing the_spirit_of the_children_of the_humankind which_is_going_up it (to)_upwards and_spirit the_cattle/livestock which_is_going_down it (to)_downwards to_earth.

OET (OET-RV) Who can know that a person’s spirit is the one going up—upwards,
 ⇔ and the animal’s spirit is the one going down—downwards to the earth?

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.OET logo mark
