Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor
בְּאֹֽרַח־צְדָקָ֥ה אֲהַלֵּ֑ך
in/on/at/with,way righteousness walk
Here Wisdom speaks of behaving righteously as if she were walking on a path. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “I behave righteously”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / possession
בְּאֹֽרַח־צְדָקָ֥ה
in/on/at/with,way righteousness
Here, Wisdom is using the possessive form to describe the path that is characterized by righteousness. If your language would not use the possessive form for this, you could use a different expression. Alternate translation: “the righteous path”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / ellipsis
בְּ֝ת֗וֹךְ נְתִיב֥וֹת מִשְׁפָּֽט
in_the=middle paths justice
Wisdom is leaving out some of the words that in many languages a clause would need in order to be complete. You could supply these words from the previous clause if it would be clearer in your language. Alternate translation: “I walk in the midst of the beaten paths of justice”
Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / possession
נְתִיב֥וֹת מִשְׁפָּֽט
paths justice
Here, Wisdom is using the possessive form to describe the beaten paths that are characterized by justice. If your language would not use the possessive form for this, you could use a different expression. Alternate translation: “the just, beaten paths”
