SIL Open Translator’s Notes:

Section 7:1–27: Tenth lesson: Here is an example of a young man who was seduced by a married woman

This lesson is another warning to avoid adultery. It begins with an appeal that the son pay attention to his father’s advice. This advice will protect him from being seduced by an adulteress (7:1–5). The main part of the lesson has the form of a first person narrative. The narrator tells how he observed a young man being seduced (7:6–23). First the story focuses on the young man (7:6–9), then it describes the adulteress (7:10–12) and her enticing words (7:13–20). Finally it tells how the young man yielded to the temptation (7:21–23). The lesson concludes with an appeal that the son follow his father’s advice rather than be seduced by the adulteress, because involvement with her will lead to death (7:24–27).

Some other headings for this section are:

Warning Against the Adulteress (NIV)

The story about an adulteress who tempted a young man

Paragraph 7:24–27

This paragraph contains an exhortation that is based on the warning given in the previous verses.

7:24

Notice the parallel parts that are similar in meaning:

24aNow, my sons, listen to me,

24band attend to the words of my mouth.

7:24a–b

(combined/reordered)

Now, my sons, listen to me, and attend to the words of my mouth: The first line is identical to 5:7a. The second line is almost identical to 4:20a, except that 4:20a is singular. Notice that this lesson was addressed to a singular “son” in 7:1. Here in 7:24 it changes to plural sons, but then changes back to singular in 7:25. See the note on 4:1a. The same change from singular to plural also occurs in 5:7.

7:24a

Now, my sons, listen to me,

7:24b

and attend to the words of my mouth.

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: grammar-connect-words-phrases

וְ⁠עַתָּ֣ה

(Some words not found in UHB: and=now children listen to=me and,be_attentive to,the_words_of my_mouth_of,my )

And now here indicates a transition from the story of the adulterous woman and young man in [7:6–23](../07/06.md) to the call to pay attention that follows. See how you translated the same clause in [5:7](../05/07.md).

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / parallelism

שִׁמְעוּ־לִ֑⁠י וְ֝⁠הַקְשִׁ֗יבוּ לְ⁠אִמְרֵי־פִֽ⁠י

(Some words not found in UHB: and=now children listen to=me and,be_attentive to,the_words_of my_mouth_of,my )

These two clauses mean basically the same thing. The second emphasizes the meaning of the first by repeating the same idea with different words. If it would be helpful to your readers, you could connect the clauses with a word that shows that the second clause is repeating the first one, not saying something additional. Alternate translation: [listen to me, yes, be attentive to the sayings of my mouth]

Note 3 topic: grammar-connect-words-phrases

לְ⁠אִמְרֵי־פִֽ⁠י

to,the_words_of my_mouth_of,my

See how you translated this phrase in [4:5](../04/05.md).
