uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

לְ⁠הִזָּהֵ֖ר

to,be_warned

The expression to be warned is a passive verbal form. If it would be unnatural to use that form, you could express the idea in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. Alternate translation: [to receive warnings]

Note 2 topic: writing-proverbs

ט֛וֹב יֶ֥לֶד מִסְכֵּ֖ן וְ⁠חָכָ֑ם מִ⁠מֶּ֤לֶךְ זָקֵן֙ וּ⁠כְסִ֔יל

good youth poor and,wise more,than_a_king old and,a_fool

Solomon uses a proverb in order to teach that wisdom is more valuable than power or age. Translate this proverb in a way that will be recognized as a proverb and be meaningful in your language and culture.
