Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor
בְּֽפִי־אֱ֭וִיל חֹ֣טֶר גַּאֲוָ֑ה
in/on/at/with,mouth_of fool rod_of back
In this clause, Solomon refers to what a fool says with his mouth resulting in him being punished with a rod as if a rod were in his mouth. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “Because of what a fool says, he is punished for pride” or “A fool is punished because of the proud things he says”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy
בְּֽפִי־אֱ֭וִיל
in/on/at/with,mouth_of fool
Here, mouth represents what a person says with his mouth. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use an equivalent expression or state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [In what a fool says]
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / possession
חֹ֣טֶר גַּאֲוָ֑ה
rod_of back
Here Solomon is using the possessive form to describe a rod that is used to punish someone for having pride. If your language would not use the possessive form for this, you could use a different expression. Alternate translation: “is a rod for punishing proud people”
Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy

and,lips_of
See how you translated the same use of lips in [10:21](../10/21.md).
תִּשְׁמוּרֵֽם
protect,them
Alternate translation: “will keep them from harm” or “will keep them safe”
14:3 A fool’s word can be used against him.
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.
