UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / possession

עֵ֣ד שָׁ֑קֶר

witness false

Here Solomon is using the possessive form to describe a witness that is characterized by falsehood. If your language would not use the possessive form for this, you could use a different expression. Alternate translation: “a false witness”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

יָפִ֣יחַ כְּ֭זָבִים

gives_~_testimony false

Here Solomon speaks of someone who lies easily as if that person breathes out lies. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “who easily lies”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

וּ⁠מְשַׁלֵּ֥חַ מְ֝דָנִ֗ים

and,stirs_up discord

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / gendernotations

אַחִֽים

brothers

Although the term brothers is masculine, Solomon is using the word in a generic sense that includes both men and women. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a phrase that makes this clear. Alternate translation: “family members”
