OET (OET-LV) She_has_sent_out servant-girls_of_her she_calls_out on the_elevations_of the_heights_of the_town.
Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / personification
שָֽׁלְחָ֣ה נַעֲרֹתֶ֣יהָ תִקְרָ֑א
sent_out servant-girls_of,her calls
In this verse, wisdom is spoken of as if it were a wealthy woman who has servants and calls out in public. See the discussion of such personification in the Chapter Introduction. Alternate translation: “It is as if wisdom were a woman who has sent out her young women and calls out”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
שָֽׁלְחָ֣ה נַעֲרֹתֶ֣יהָ
sent_out servant-girls_of,her
Solomon implies that the young women were sent out in order to invite people to the meal that Wisdom had prepared. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state this explicitly. Alternate translation: “She has sent out her young women to invite people to the meal”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in wings_of high_places_of
See how you translated the similar phrase “the head of the heights” in [8:2](../08/02.md).
9:3 Throughout the ancient Near East, temples were built on the heights overlooking the city. A commitment to wisdom involves a commitment to the Lord (contrast 9:14).

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.
