UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

וּ⁠בִ⁠שְׁעָרֶֽי⁠ךָ

and,in/on/at/with,gates,your

Here, the word gates refers to city gates. In those days, homes did not have gates, so we know that Moses is referring to city gates. You could include this information if that would be helpful to your readers. Alternate translation: “and on the entrance to your city”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / youcrowd

בֵּיתֶ֖⁠ךָ וּ⁠בִ⁠שְׁעָרֶֽי⁠ךָ

house,your and,in/on/at/with,gates,your

Even though Moses is speaking to all the Israelites, you and your are singular here. If the singular forms of these pronouns would not be natural in your language, you could use the plural forms in your translation.
