אֵ֣שֶׁת כְּ֭סִילוּת הֹֽמִיָּ֑ה פְּ֝תַיּ֗וּת וּבַל־יָ֥דְעָה מָּֽה
wife_of folly loud ignorant and,not knows anything
The woman of stupidity is referred to from this verse through verse 18. Translate consistently according to which of the following options that you choose. This phrase could refer to: (1) a woman who is characterized by stupidity, in which case this phrase would refer to stupid women in general. Alternate translation: “A stupid woman is loud, naive, and she does not know anything” or “Stupid women are loud, naive, and do not know anything” (2) stupidity as if it were a woman, which is how wisdom was spoken of in the previous part of this chapter. Alternate translation: “Lady Stupidity is loud, naive, and she does not know anything”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / hyperbole
וּבַל־יָ֥דְעָה מָּֽה
and,not knows anything
This phrase is an exaggeration that Solomon uses to emphasize how ignorant this woman is. It does not mean that she does not know anything at all. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “and she does not know much” or “and she knows very little”
9:13 The woman named Folly is brash: Fools talk boldly and without shame but have nothing intelligent to say.
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.
