Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / merism
אַֽל־תֵּט־יָמִ֥ין וּשְׂמֹ֑אול
not swerve right and,left
Here Solomon uses right and left to refer to going in any direction other than straight ahead. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “Do not go in any direction other than straight ahead”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / exmetaphor
אַֽל־תֵּט־יָמִ֥ין וּשְׂמֹ֑אול הָסֵ֖ר רַגְלְךָ֣ מֵרָֽע
not swerve right and,left turn_~_away foot_of,your from,evil
In this verse, Solomon continues to talk about how a person behaves as though the person is walking on a path. On this path of right living, the person should “gaze to the front” (verse 25), make the track “level” (verse 26), and not veer or turn away from it. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “Do not stop behaving rightly; make yourself avoid doing evil”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / synecdoche
רַגְלְךָ֣
foot_of,your
See how you translated the same use of foot in the previous verse.
Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns
מֵרָֽע
from,evil
See how you translated from evil in [3:7](../03/07.md).
4:20-27 The wise walk the path of life with eyes straight ahead.
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.
