1 tn Heb “she has caused to fall.”
2 tn Heb “numerous” (so NAB, NASB, NRSV, NLT) or “countless.”
3 tn Heb “men.” Although it might be argued in light of the preceding material that males would be particularly addressed by wisdom here, the following material indicates a more universal appeal. Cf. TEV, NLT “to all of you.”
4 tn The verb “calls” does not appear in the Hebrew text, but is supplied in the translation for the sake of style.
5 tn Heb “sons of man.” Cf. NAB “the children of men”; NCV, NLT “all people”; NRSV “all that live.”
