UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / simile

הָג֣וֹ

remove

In this verse, Solomon is comparing what follows to what he said in the previous verse. In the same way that “dross” must be removed from silver in order to make a vessel, a wicked one must be removed from before the face of the king in order for that king’s throne to be established. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state that explicitly. Alternate translation: “Similarly, remove” or “So also remove”
