אָדָ֣ם בְּ֭לִיַּעַל אִ֣ישׁ אָ֑וֶן
humankind worthless (a)_man wicked
The phrases man of worthlessness and man of iniquity mean the same thing. Solomon is using them together for emphasis. If it would be clearer for your readers, you could express the emphasis with a single phrase. Alternate translation: “A completely useless man”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / possession
אָדָ֣ם בְּ֭לִיַּעַל אִ֣ישׁ אָ֑וֶן
humankind worthless (a)_man wicked
Here Solomon is using the possessive form to describe a man that is characterized by worthlessness and iniquity. If your language would not use the possessive form for this, you could use a different expression. Alternate translation: “A worthless man, an iniquitous man”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / gendernotations
אָדָ֣ם & אִ֣ישׁ
humankind & (a)_man
Although the term man is masculine, Solomon is using the word in a generic sense that includes both men and women. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a phrase that makes this clear. Alternate translation: “A person of … a person of”
