UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / genericnoun

צַ֭דִּיק & רָשָׁ֣ע

law-abiding/just & wicked

See how you translated A righteous one in 9:9 and a wicked one in 9:7.

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

צַ֭דִּיק מִ⁠צָּרָ֣ה נֶחֱלָ֑ץ וַ⁠יָּבֹ֖א רָשָׁ֣ע תַּחְתָּֽי⁠ו

law-abiding/just from,trouble delivered and,get_into wicked instead,it

In this verse, Solomon speaks of avoiding and experiencing distress as if distress were a place that someone could be drawn away from or enter. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “A righteous one is prevented from experiencing distress, but a wicked one experiences distress instead of him”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

צַ֭דִּיק & נֶחֱלָ֑ץ

law-abiding/just & delivered

If your language does not use this passive form, you could express the idea in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. The context implies that Yahweh does the action. Alternate translation: “Yahweh draws away a righteous one”

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns

מִ⁠צָּרָ֣ה

from,trouble

See how you translated the abstract noun distress in 1:27.

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / ellipsis

וַ⁠יָּבֹ֖א רָשָׁ֣ע

and,get_into wicked

Solomon is leaving out a word that in many languages a clause would need in order to be complete. You could supply this word from the previous clause if it would be clearer in your language. Alternate translation: “but a wicked one enters distress”
