Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / parallelism
גִּ֣יל יָ֭גִיל אֲבִ֣י צַדִּ֑יק וְיוֹלֵ֥ד חָ֝כָ֗ם יִשְׂמַח־בּֽוֹ
(Some words not found in UHB: to_have_joy he_has_joy father_of law-abiding/just יולד wise and, in/on/over=him/it )
These two phrases mean basically the same thing. The second emphasizes the meaning of the first by repeating the same idea with different words. If it would be helpful to your readers, you could connect the phrases with a word other than and in order to show that the second phrase is repeating the first one, not saying something additional. Alternate translation: “The father of a righteous one, rejoicing, will rejoice; yes, one who begets a wise one, he will be glad in him”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / genericnoun
אֲבִ֣י צַדִּ֑יק וְיוֹלֵ֥ד חָ֝כָ֗ם & בּֽוֹ
father_of law-abiding/just (Some words not found in UHB: to_have_joy he_has_joy father_of law-abiding/just יולד wise and, in/on/over=him/it )
The father, a righteous one, one who begets, a wise one, and him refer to types of people in general, not to specific people. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use more natural expressions. Alternate translation: “Any father of any righteous person … and any person who begets any wise person … in that person”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / reduplication
גִּ֣יל יָ֭גִיל
(Some words not found in UHB: to_have_joy he_has_joy father_of law-abiding/just יולד wise and, in/on/over=him/it )
The writer is repeating the verb rejoice in order to intensify the idea that it expresses. If your language can repeat words for intensification, it would be appropriate to do that here in your translation. If not, your language may have another way of expressing the emphasis. Alternate translation: “he will greatly rejoice”
Note 4 topic: grammar-connect-logic-result
בּֽוֹ
in/on/over=him/it
The word translated as in indicates that what follows is the reason for what came before. Use a connector in your language that makes it clear that what follows is a reason for what came before. Alternate translation: “on account of him”
