Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / parallelism
לְחָכְמָתִ֣י הַקְשִׁ֑יבָה לִ֝תְבוּנָתִ֗י הַט־אָזְנֶֽךָ
to,wisdom_of,my attentive, to,understanding_of,my incline ear_of,your
These two phrases mean similar things. Solomon is using repetition to emphasize the idea that the phrases express. If it would be helpful to your readers, you could combine the phrases and express the emphasis in another way. Alternate translation: “listen attentively to my wisdom; apply yourself to learn what I understand”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns
לְחָכְמָתִ֣י & לִ֝תְבוּנָתִ֗י
to,wisdom_of,my & to,understanding_of,my
See how you translated the abstract nouns wisdom and understanding in [1:2](../01/02.md).
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
לְחָכְמָתִ֣י & לִ֝תְבוּנָתִ֗י
to,wisdom_of,my & to,understanding_of,my
Here, my wisdom and my understanding refer to the wise lessons that Solomon teaches his son and what he tells his son to understand. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state this explicitly. Alternate translation: “to my wise lessons … to what I tell you to understand”
Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom
הַט־אָזְנֶֽךָ
incline ear_of,your
See how you translated this idiom in [4:20](../04/20.md).
5:1-23 These instructions on embracing one’s wife and avoiding immoral women were originally addressed to young men just beginning their professional careers (see also 2:16-22; 7:1-27). This topic is also popular in ancient Egyptian wisdom writing.
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.
