UTNuW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

(Occurrence 0) he was the one who was captured in their pits

(Some words not found in UHB: breath nostrils,our anointed YHWH captured in/on/at/with,pits,their which/who said in/on/at/with,shadow,his live in/on/at/with,nations )

Here “pits” refers to the enemies’ plans to capture him. If your language does not use the passive form in this way, you can state this in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. Alternate translation: “he was the one whom our enemies captured by their plans” or “our enemies made plans to capture our king, and they did capture him” (See also: figs-activepassive)

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / distinguish

(Occurrence 0) of whom it was said

(Some words not found in UHB: breath nostrils,our anointed YHWH captured in/on/at/with,pits,their which/who said in/on/at/with,shadow,his live in/on/at/with,nations )

This phrase with the quote following it gives us more information about the king. The quote shows what the people had hoped the king would do for them before he was trapped. It can be expressed in active form. Alternate translation: “even though we had said about him” (See also: figs-activepassive)

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

(Occurrence 0) Under his shadow we will live among the nations

(Some words not found in UHB: breath nostrils,our anointed YHWH captured in/on/at/with,pits,their which/who said in/on/at/with,shadow,his live in/on/at/with,nations )

Here “his shadow” represents him protecting them. Alternate translation: “Under his protection we will live among the nations” or “Though we may have to live in other nations, he will protect us”
