Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / irony

יִֽשְׂבַּֽע־רִֽישׁ

have_plenty_of have_plenty_of poverty

Here Solomon is using irony. By doing so, Solomon actually means to communicate the opposite of the literal meaning of his words. The one who pursues empty things is spoken of as being satisfied with poverty, but poverty is not satisfying. If it would be helpful in your language, you could translate the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “will only have poverty”

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns

רִֽישׁ

poverty

See how you translated the abstract noun poverty in 6:11.
