SIL Open Translator’s Notes:

Section 25:1–29:27: This is Hezekiah’s collection of Solomon’s proverbs

This section is the second collection of Solomon’s proverbs. These proverbs were organized and copied by men who served King Hezekiah. Most scholars divide this section into two groups. These groups differ in several ways.

The first group (chapters 25–27) has many more comparisons and admonitions. In Hebrew, most of these comparisons are metaphors in which one or more illustrations precede the topic. Some English versions change the order so that the topic precedes the illustration(s). You should follow the order that expresses the meaning naturally and effectively in your language.

In the first group, many proverbs are one verse long. As with the individual proverbs in the main collection of Solomon’s proverbs (Section 10:1–22:16), they are not related to the proverbs around them. Other proverbs in this group are two or more verses long. Still others are one-verse proverbs that are closely related in theme. Proverbs in all three categories will be marked as separate paragraphs.

The second group (chapters 28–29) has more contrastive proverbs. The proverbs in this group are each one verse long. They will not be marked as separate paragraphs.

Some other headings for this section are:

More Proverbs of Solomon (NIV)

Proverbs of Solomon Collected by Hezekiah (NET)

These are also wise things that Solomon said

29:1

1aA man who remains stiff-necked after much reproof

1bwill suddenly be shattered beyond remedy.

The first line of this proverb describes a stubborn person who refuses to heed much reproof. The second line describes the punishment that is the result of such behavior.

29:1a

A man who remains stiff-necked after much reproof

A man who remains stiff-necked after much reproof: The idiom that the BSB translates here as stiff-necked is literally “hardens his neck.” It refers here to a person who is extremely stubborn and refuses to change his wicked behavior. He continues to be stubborn even after someone has repeatedly reprimanded or warned him. Some other ways to translate this line are:

If you keep being stubborn after many warnings (CEV)

Whoever stubbornly refuses to accept criticism (NLT)

stiff-necked: Some other ways to translate this idiom are:

reproof: This word refers to spoken correction, rebuke, or warning. In many languages, it may be more natural to express these nouns as verbs. For example:

every time you are corrected (GNT)

He who is often reproved (ESV)

See rebuke 1 (Hebrew tokaḥat) in the Glossary.

29:1b

will suddenly be shattered beyond recovery.

will suddenly be shattered beyond recovery: This line is identical to 6:15b. See how you translated it there.

will suddenly be shattered: The word that the BSB translates as shattered is literally “broken in pieces.” Here it refers figuratively to punishment. Some ways to translate this figure of speech are:

The clause will suddenly be shattered is passive. If your language does not use passive constructions, you may need to use an active verb and make the agent explicit. For example:

The LORD will destroy/punish him suddenly

beyond recovery: The nature of the disaster or punishment is not specified, except that it will be without remedy. Some other ways to translate this phrase are:

beyond healing (NRSV)

and never recover (GNT)

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / genericnoun

אִ֣ישׁ תּ֭וֹכָחוֹת

(a)_man reproved

A man of rebukes here represents a type of person in general, not one particular man. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a more natural expression. Alternate translation: “Any person of rebukes”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / possession

אִ֣ישׁ תּ֭וֹכָחוֹת

(a)_man reproved

Here Solomon uses the possessive form to describe A man who has received many rebukes. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a different expression. Alternate translation: “A man who is often rebuked and”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

מַקְשֶׁה־עֹ֑רֶף

stubborn neck

Here Solomon speaks of a person becoming stubborn as if that person stiffens his neck. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “who becomes stubborn” or “who refuses to listen”

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

פֶּ֥תַע יִ֝שָּׁבֵ֗ר וְ⁠אֵ֣ין מַרְפֵּֽא

suddenly broken and,there_[will]_not_[be] healing

See how you translated the same clause in [6:15](../06/15.md).
