UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / genericnoun

אָדָ֗ם

humankind

A man refers to people in general, not to a specific man. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a more natural expression. Alternate translation: “Any person”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

תּ֭וֹעֶה מִ⁠דֶּ֣רֶךְ הַשְׂכֵּ֑ל

wanders from,way understanding

Here Solomon refers to a person who stops behaving wisely as if the right way to behave were a way that he wanders from. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express the meaning plainly. See how you translated the same use of way in 1:15. Alternate translation: “no longer lives wisely”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy

בִּ⁠קְהַ֖ל רְפָאִ֣ים יָנֽוּחַ

in/on/at/with,assembly dead rest

In this clause, Solomon refers to a person dying. The phrase the assembly of the spirits of dead ones refers to the place where people’s spirits go when they die. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “will end up in the place where the spirits of dead people dwell” or “will end up dead”
