OET (OET-LV) Until when Oh_sluggard will_you_lie_down when will_you_rise from_sleep_of_your.

OET (OET-RV) How much longer will you lie there, lazy person?
 ⇔ ≈ When will you get up from your sleep?

SIL Open Translator’s Notes:

Section 6:1–19: Here are several practical admonitions and warnings

This section contains practical warnings about four specific and unrelated areas of behavior. The first warning is about the danger of cosigning a loan for another person (6:1–5). The second paragraph speaks highly of the diligence of the ant and warns against laziness (6:6–11). The third paragraph briefly describes the behavior of a worthless scoundrel (6:12–15). The last paragraph is in the form of a numerical proverb and lists seven sins that the LORD hates (6:16–19).

Some other headings for this section are:

More Warnings (GNT)

Dangers of Being Foolish (NCV)

Warnings Against Folly (NIV)

Paragraph 6:6–11

In this paragraph, the author introduces a different topic. He gives advice to lazy people, addressing them directly as “O slacker.” In some languages, it may be necessary to indicate this change of topic in some way. See the translation advice in the note on 6:6a.

6:9

Notice the parallel rhetorical questions:

9a How long will you lie there, O slacker?

9b When will you get up from your sleep?

6:9a

How long will you lie there, O slacker?

6:9b

When will you get up from your sleep?

6:9a–b

How long will you lie there, O slacker? When will you get up from your sleep?: These rhetorical questions are used to rebuke the lazy person. The parallel repetition makes the rebuke more forceful. Other ways to translate these rhetorical questions are:

You may also use a different option in each parallel line or change the order of the parallel lines. Use an option that will express this rebuke effectively in your language.

O slacker: The person addressed in this verse is the same person or class of people as in 6:6a. You will need to decide whether to refer to the hearer in the same way as in that verse.

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / rquestion

עַד־מָתַ֖י עָצֵ֥ל ׀ תִּשְׁכָּ֑ב מָ֝תַ֗י תָּק֥וּם מִ⁠שְּׁנָתֶֽ⁠ךָ

until when(q) sluggard lie when(q) get_up from,sleep_of,your

Solomon is using the question form twice in this verse for emphasis. If you would not use the question form for this purpose in your language, you could translate this as a statement or an exclamation. Alternate translation: “Lazy person, you should stop lying down! You should rise from your sleep!”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

תִּשְׁכָּ֑ב

lie

The phrase lie down implies that the person has been lying on a bed to sleep. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state this explicitly. Alternate translation: “will you sleep in your bed”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

תָּק֥וּם מִ⁠שְּׁנָתֶֽ⁠ךָ

get_up from,sleep_of,your

Here Solomon refers to waking up as if a person were rising up from sleep. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “will you wake up”

TSN Tyndale Study Notes:

6:6-11 Lazy people sleep rather than make necessary provisions (see also 24:33-34). They are the opposite of self-motivated and industrious ants.
• Extra sleep . . . more slumber sarcastically expresses a lazy person’s ambition.
