שֵׂ֣כֶל & וְ֝תִפאַרְתּ֗וֹ & פָּֽשַׁע
good_sense & and,glory,his & offense
See how you translated the abstract nouns insight in 1:3, splendor in 4:9, and transgression in 10:19.
Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / gendernotations
אָ֭דָם & אַפּ֑וֹ וְ֝תִפאַרְתּ֗וֹ
humankind & anger,him and,glory,his
Although a man and his are masculine, Solomon is using the 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: “a person … that person’s nose … and that person’s splendor”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom
הֶאֱרִ֣יךְ אַפּ֑וֹ
slow anger,him
Here, Solomon refers to not becoming angry quickly as if a person’s nose became long. The word nose here means “anger” by association with the way that a person who is angry breathes heavily through his nose. Your language and culture may also associate anger with a particular part of the body. If so, you could use an expression involving that part of the body in your translation. You could also use plain language. See how you translated the similar expression “long of nostrils” in 14:29. Alternate translation: “causes him to not easily vent his spleen” or “causes him not to become angry quickly”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor
עֲבֹ֣ר עַל
overlook on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in
Here, Solomon refers to a person ignoring or forgiving a transgression as if that person passes over it. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “is to ignore” or “is to forgive”
Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / genericnoun
פָּֽשַׁע
offense
Here, the word transgression represents transgressions in general, not one particular transgression. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a more natural expression. Alternate translation: “any transgression”
Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
פָּֽשַׁע
offense
Here, Solomon implies that this is a transgression that someone has committed against the person who passes over it. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “a transgression that someone has committed against him”
