Common Translation

SIBI-P1 Translation H1870-31
her paths
| Morphological Notes | Common noun, plural construct; 3rd feminine singular pronominal suffix ("her"). |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun derives from the root meaning "to tread," denoting paths formed by walking. The plural construct form with a 3rd feminine singular suffix requires "paths" (plural) plus "her" to preserve number and pronominal morphology. |

SILEX v2
SIBI-P2 (Context-Aware)
her ways
| Same as P1 | No — adjusted for context |
| Rationale | 'Her ways' fits the context of the verse discussing the characteristics of 'wisdom' and aligns with common and idiomatic use in English. Minimal adjustment from 'her paths' for contextual clarity since 'ways' more closely describes conduct or manner of life in this setting. |
