wisdom built house,her hewn pillars,her seven

In 9:1–12, Wisdom is spoken of as if it were a woman. See the discussion of this in the General Notes for this chapter. Alternate translation: “It is as if wisdom were a woman who has built her house and has hewn out her seven pillars”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

חָצְבָ֖ה עַמּוּדֶ֣י⁠הָ שִׁבְעָֽה

hewn pillars,her seven

This clause refers to part of the process of building the house that was mentioned in the previous clause. A house with seven pillars would have been very large. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state this explicitly. Alternate translation: “she has hewn out seven pillars to support the roof of her house”
