UTNuW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / merism

אַֽל־תֵּט־יָמִ֥ין וּ⁠שְׂמֹ֑אול

not swerve right and,left

Here Solomon uses right and left to refer to going in any direction other than straight ahead. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “Do not go in any direction other than straight ahead”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / exmetaphor

אַֽל־תֵּט־יָמִ֥ין וּ⁠שְׂמֹ֑אול הָסֵ֖ר רַגְלְ⁠ךָ֣ מֵ⁠רָֽע

not swerve right and,left turn_~_away foot,your from,evil

In this verse, Solomon continues to make an extended comparison between how a person behaves and a person walking on a path from which he should not veer or turn away. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “Do not stop behaving rightly; make yourself avoid doing evil”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / synecdoche

רַגְלְ⁠ךָ֣

foot,your

See how you translated the same use of foot in the previous verse.

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns

מֵ⁠רָֽע

from,evil

See how you translated from evil in 3:7.
