OET interlinear PRO 26:24

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / genericnoun

בִּ֭שְׂפָתָיו יִנָּכֵ֣ר שׂוֹנֵ֑א וּ֝⁠בְ⁠קִרְבּ֗⁠וֹ יָשִׁ֥ית מִרְמָֽה

(Some words not found in UHB: in/on/at/with,lips_of,his disguises enemy and,in/on/at/with,heart_of,his harbors deceit )

Here, his, one who hates, himself, him, and he refer to a type of person in general, not a specific person. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use more natural expressions. Alternate translation: “With the lips of any person who hates, that person disguises himself, but that person sets deceit within that person”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy

בִּ֭שְׂפָתָיו

(Some words not found in UHB: in/on/at/with,lips_of,his disguises enemy and,in/on/at/with,heart_of,his harbors deceit )

See how you translated the same use of lips in the previous verse.

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor
