10:1–22:16 This long section is called The proverbs of Solomon. It consists mostly of brief bits of advice and observation. These sayings make heavy use of antithetical parallelism to contrast wisdom and righteousness with folly and wickedness. The arrangement of these proverbs appears to be essentially random, as in Egyptian and Mesopotamian wisdom literature. Some proverbs are repeated (see 6:10-11 and 24:33-34; 14:12 and 16:25; 18:8 and 26:22; 19:24 and 26:15; 20:16 and 27:13; 21:9 and 25:24; 22:3 and 27:12). Sometimes a group of proverbs shares a similar theme (e.g., 16:1-11).
10:1 The joy or grief of godly parents reflects the degree of their child’s obedience to principles of wisdom.

בֵּ֣ן חָ֭כָם יְשַׂמַּח־אָ֑ב וּבֵ֥ן כְּ֝סִ֗יל תּוּגַ֥ת אִמּֽוֹ
son wise makes_~_glad father and,son foolish grief his/its=mother
Although the terms son and his are masculine, Solomon is using these words in a generic sense that includes both men and women. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use phrases that make this clear. Alternate translation: “Any wise person gladdens that person’s father, but any stupid person is the grief of that person’s mother”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
אָ֑ב
father
Here, father refers specifically to the father of the son mentioned earlier in the sentence. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state this explicitly, as in the UST.
Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns
תּוּגַ֥ת אִמּֽוֹ
grief his/its=mother
If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea of grief, you could express the same idea in another way. Alternate translation: “grieves his mother”
