Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / nominaladj
כֹּ֤ל & לַֽמַּעֲנֵ֑הוּ
all & for_the,purpose,his
Solomon is using the adjective all as a noun to mean everything that exists. Your language may use adjectives in the same way. If not, you could translate this word with an equivalent phrase. Alternate translation: “all things for their own purposes”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns
לַֽמַּעֲנֵ֑הוּ & רָעָֽה
for_the,purpose,his & trouble
If your language does not use abstract nouns for the ideas of purpose and evil, you could express the same ideas in other ways. See how you translated evil in 1:16. Alternate translation: “for what they will accomplish … what is evil”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / ellipsis
וְגַם־רָ֝שָׁ֗ע
and=also wicked
Solomon is leaving out some of the words that in many languages a clause would need in order to be complete. You could supply these words from the previous clause if it would be clearer in your language. Alternate translation: “and Yahweh has even made a wicked one”
Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / genericnoun
רָ֝שָׁ֗ע
wicked
See how you translated this phrase in 9:7.
Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
לְי֣וֹם רָעָֽה
for,day trouble
Here, the day of evil could refer to a time when wicked people experience disaster. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “for the time of disaster”
