SIL Open Translator’s Notes:

Section 3:1–12: Third lesson: Humbly trust in the LORD

This lesson consists of a series of commands. Each set of parallel commands is followed by a promised result, except for 3:12, which gives a reason for the command.

Another heading for this section is:

Trusting in the Lord (NLT)

3:5

Notice the parallel commands. The command in 3:5a is positive. The father tells his son what he should do. The command in 3:5b is negative and figurative. The father tells his son what he should not do.

5a Trust in the LORD with all your heart,

5band lean not on your own understanding;

3:5a–b

Trust in…lean not on: To Trust in the LORD means “to rely” or “depend on” the LORD, to have confidence in him. The parallel verb lean…on should be understood figuratively. It also means “to rely/depend on.”

3:5a

Trust in the LORD with all your heart,

with all your heart: Some other ways to translate this phrase are:

completely

with all your mental abilities

with all your mind, emotions, and will

3:5b

and lean not on your own understanding;

lean not on your own understanding: The Hebrew word binah, which the BSB translates as understanding, refers to the intellectual or mental ability to comprehend and interpret concepts, to draw conclusions, and to understand the relationship between things. It is not the same word as in 2:2b. Other ways to translate this clause are:

put no faith in your own perception (NJB)

do not rely on your own insight (NRSV)

do not trust your own judgment

See understanding (insight) in the Glossary.

General Comment on 3:5a–b

In some languages, it may be more natural to put the negative command first. For example:

5bDo not think that your understanding is enough to help you.

5aYou must concentrate all your thoughts on trusting the LORD.

Use a natural order in your language for giving positive and negative commands.

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy

לִבֶּ֑⁠ךָ

(Some words not found in UHB: trust to/towards YHWH in=all heart_of,your and=near/to understanding_of,your_own not lean )

See how you translated heart in [2:2](../02/02.md).

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

וְ⁠אֶל־בִּֽ֝ינָתְ⁠ךָ֗ אַל־תִּשָּׁעֵֽן

and=near/to (Some words not found in UHB: trust to/towards YHWH in=all heart_of,your and=near/to understanding_of,your_own not lean )

Here Solomon speaks of relying on one’s own understanding as if understanding were an object on which a person could lean. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [do not rely on your own understanding]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns

בִּֽ֝ינָתְ⁠ךָ֗

(Some words not found in UHB: trust to/towards YHWH in=all heart_of,your and=near/to understanding_of,your_own not lean )

See how you translated the abstract noun understanding in [1:2](../01/02.md).
