OET interlinear ECC 3:22

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: writing-pronouns

יִשְׂמַ֤ח הָ⁠אָדָם֙ בְּֽ⁠מַעֲשָׂ֔י⁠ו

enjoy the=humankind in,work(s)_of,his

The pronoun his refers to humanity collectively, spoken of as a single person. It may be helpful to clarify this for your readers. Alternate translation: [each person should rejoice in his works]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns

חֶלְק֑⁠וֹ

portion_of,[is]_his

If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea of portion, you could express the same idea in another way. Alternate translation: [what God has given him]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / rquestion

כִּ֣י מִ֤י יְבִיאֶ֨⁠נּוּ֙ לִ⁠רְא֔וֹת בְּ⁠מֶ֖ה שֶׁ⁠יִּהְיֶ֥ה אַחֲרָֽי⁠ו

that/for/because/then/when that/for/because/then/when who? will,he_bring_him to=see on,whatever (that)_it,will_be after,him

Solomon is using the question form to emphasize that no one can show a person what will happen after him. 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: [For no one can show him what will happen after him]

Note 4 topic: grammar-connect-logic-result

כִּ֣י מִ֤י יְבִיאֶ֨⁠נּוּ֙ לִ⁠רְא֔וֹת בְּ⁠מֶ֖ה שֶׁ⁠יִּהְיֶ֥ה אַחֲרָֽי⁠ו

that/for/because/then/when that/for/because/then/when who? will,he_bring_him to=see on,whatever (that)_it,will_be after,him

The word translated as For indicates that what follows is a reason for what came before. Use a connector in your language that makes it clear that what follows is a reason for what came before. Alternate translation: [After all, who will bring him to look at what that will be after him?]

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

ה֖וּא חֶלְק֑⁠וֹ

he/it portion_of,[is]_his

Here Solomon is speaking as if the enjoyment of work were a portion of food allotted to someone. He means that it is what God has assigned to each person. Your language may have a comparable expression that you can use in your translation, or you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [it is what God has assigned to him]
