Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / gendernotations
אָדָ֣ם
humankind
Although the term man is masculine, Solomon is using the word in a generic sense that could refer to either a man or woman. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a phrase that makes this clear. Alternate translation: “A person”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive
לֹא־יִכּ֣וֹן & בַּל־יִמּֽוֹט
not established & never moved
If your language does not use the passive form in this way, you can state this in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. Alternate translation: “will not establish himself … nobody will shake”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
לֹא־יִכּ֣וֹן
not established
Here the word translated as established refers to having a stable and secure life. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state this explicitly. Alternate translation: “will not be made secure”
Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns
בְּרֶ֑שַׁע
in/on/at/with,wickedness
See how you translated the abstract noun wickedness in 4:17.
Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor
וְשֹׁ֥רֶשׁ צַ֝דִּיקִ֗ים בַּל־יִמּֽוֹט
and,root righteous never moved
Here Solomon refers to someone’s life remaining secure as if that person’s security were a root that could not be shaken. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “but the security of the righteous ones will not end” or “but the security of the righteous ones will remain”
