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]
