כָּל־ר֭וּח⁠וֹ יוֹצִ֣יא

all/each/any/every his/its=breath/wind/spirit gives_~_ventto

Here Solomon refers to a person openly expressing all of his emotions as if his emotions were a spirit that he brings out of himself. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “openly expresses all his emotions”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

בְּ⁠אָח֥וֹר יְשַׁבְּחֶֽ⁠נָּה

in/on/at/with,quiet holds_~_back,it

Here Solomon refers to a person controlling the expression of his emotions as if he soothes those emotions so that they go backward into him. The meaning of this phrase is the opposite of the meaning of brings out all his spirit in the previous clause. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “restrains himself from openly expressing his emotions”
