UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / ellipsis

לֹא־יוֹעִ֣יל ה֭וֹן בְּ⁠י֣וֹם עֶבְרָ֑ה וּ֝⁠צְדָקָ֗ה תַּצִּ֥יל מִ⁠מָּֽוֶת

not profit wealth in/on=day severe_anger and,righteousness delivers from,death

Solomon is leaving out some of the words that in many languages both of these clauses would need in order to be complete. You could supply these words from the context if it would be clearer in your language. Alternate translation: “Wealth will not profit you in the day of rage, but righteousness will deliver you from death” or “Wealth will not profit people in the day of rage, but righteousness will deliver people from death”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

לֹא־יוֹעִ֣יל

not profit

See how you translated the same use of profit in 3:14.

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

בְּ⁠י֣וֹם עֶבְרָ֑ה

in/on=day severe_anger

Here, the day of rage refers to a time when God will judge wicked people. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state this explicitly. Alternate translation: “in the day of Yahweh’s judgment”

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / personification

וּ֝⁠צְדָקָ֗ה תַּצִּ֥יל מִ⁠מָּֽוֶת

and,righteousness delivers from,death

Here Solomon speaks of righteousness enabling a person to escape death as if ""righteousness were a living thing that could deliver that person from death. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express the meaning plainly or use a simile. Alternate translation: “but righteousness will enable someone to be delivered from death” or “but righteousness is like someone who delivers a person from death”

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns
וּ֝⁠צְדָקָ֗ה & מִ⁠מָּֽוֶת
