אָדָ֗ם & אִ֣ישׁ חַסְדּ֑⁠וֹ וְ⁠אִ֥ישׁ

humankind & (a)_man loyalty_of,his_own and,man_of

Although man and his are masculine, Solomon is using these words in a generic sense that includes both men and women. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use phrases that make this clear. Alternate translation: “a person … each person, that person’s covenant faithfulness, but a person of”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns

חַסְדּ֑⁠וֹ

loyalty_of,his_own

See how you translated the abstract noun covenant faithfulness in [3:3](../03/03.md).

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / rquestion

וְ⁠אִ֥ישׁ אֱ֝מוּנִ֗ים מִ֣י יִמְצָֽא

and,man_of trustworthy who? find

Solomon is using the question form to emphasize how few people act faithfully. If you would not use the question form for this purpose in your language, you could translate this as a statement or an exclamation. Alternate translation: “but it is very difficult to find a man of faithful acts!”

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / possession

וְ⁠אִ֥ישׁ אֱ֝מוּנִ֗ים

and,man_of trustworthy

Here Solomon is using the possessive form to describe a man who is characterized by doing faithful acts. If your language would not use the possessive form for this, you could use a different expression. Alternate translation: “but a man who does faithful acts”
