Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / gendernotations
אֲחֵי
brothers
Although the term brothers is masculine, Solomon is using the word in a generic sense that includes both men and women. See how you translated the same use of brothers in 6:19.
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / genericnoun
רָ֨שׁ ׀ שְֽׂנֵאֻ֗הוּ & מְ֭רֵעֵהוּ & מִמֶּ֑נּוּ מְרַדֵּ֖ף
poor hate,him & friends,his & from=him/it pursues
Here, one who is poor, him, his, and He refer to a type of person in general, not one particular poor person. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use more natural expressions. See how you translated one who is poor in 14:20. Alternate translation: “any person who is poor hate that person … that person’s friends … from that person! That person pursues”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
שְֽׂנֵאֻ֗הוּ
hate,him
This could mean: (1) these people despise the one who is poor, as in the UST. (2) these people avoid or shun one who is poor, which would have a similar meaning to go far away from in the next clause. Alternate translation: “shun him”
Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / ellipsis
מְרַדֵּ֖ף אֲמָרִ֣ים לא־הֵֽמָּה
pursues words לא they(emph)
Solomon is leaving out some of the words that in many languages a sentence would need in order to be complete. You could supply these words from the context if it would be clearer in your language. Alternate translation: “He pursues them with words, but they are not there”
Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor
מְרַדֵּ֖ף אֲמָרִ֣ים
pursues words
Here Solomon refers to someone pleading for help from his brothers and friends as if he were using words to chase them. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “He pleads with them for help”
Note 6 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy
אֲמָרִ֣ים
words
See how you translated the same use of words in 1:23.
