שְׁ֭פַנִּים
badgers
Rock badgers are small animals also called “hyraxes” that live in the cracks between rocks in the wilderness. If your readers would not be familiar with this type of animal, you could use the name of something similar in your area, or you could use a more general term. Alternate translation: “Small mammals that living among rocks”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / personification
עַ֣ם
people
See how you translated the same use of people in the previous verse.
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / genericnoun
בַסֶּ֣לַע בֵּיתָֽם
in/on/at/with,rocks homes_of,their
Although house and the cliff are singular, they refer to these things in general. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use more natural expressions. Alternate translation: “their houses in the cliffs”
Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / personification
בֵּיתָֽם
homes_of,their
Here Agur refers to the places where Rock badgers live as if those places were houses such as humans live in. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “their dwelling places” or “their holes”
30:24-28 Another example of number parallelism. Here, small, insignificant animals are surprisingly powerful and resourceful.
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.
