uW Translation Notes:

(Occurrence 0) The fool folds his hands and does not work

(Some words not found in UHB: the,fool folds DOM hands_of,his and,consumes DOM flesh_of,his_own )

To fold the hands is a gesture of laziness and is another way of saying that the person refuses to work. Alternate translation: “The fool refuses to work” (See also: figs-parallelism)

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

(Occurrence 0) so his food is his own flesh

(Some words not found in UHB: the,fool folds DOM hands_of,his and,consumes DOM flesh_of,his_own )

This speaks of a person destroying himself as if he were eating his own body. Alternate translation: “as a result, he causes his own ruin” or “and as a result, he destroys himself”

TSN Tyndale Study Notes:

4:5-6 Fools do not even try to succeed and end up impoverished. Others frantically devote two handfuls—all their time and effort—to hard work in pursuit of fleeting wealth that they will have no time to enjoy (cp. Prov 23:4-5). Wise people practice moderation and contentment (quietness).

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.
