UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: writing-pronouns

לֹא־יִ֭שָּׂא & וְ⁠לֹֽא־יֹ֝אבֶ֗ה

not accept & and=not willing

In this verse, the pronoun he refers to the man who has just found out that his wife has committed adultery. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state this explicitly. Alternate translation: “The husband of an adulterous wife will not lift up … and that husband will not be willing”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom

לֹא־יִ֭שָּׂא פְּנֵ֣י

not accept face/surface_of

Here, the phrase lift up the face of is an idiom that means “regard.” If it would be helpful in your language, you could express the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “He will not regard”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

כֹּ֑פֶר & שֹֽׁחַד

compensation & bribe

Here, the words ransom and bribe refer to money that a man would give to the husband of the woman he has committed adultery with in order to avoid harm or stop the man from being angry. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state this explicitly. Alternate translation: “money offered to appease him … that money”

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / ellipsis

וְ⁠לֹֽא־יֹ֝אבֶ֗ה

and=not willing

Solomon is leaving out some of the words that in many languages a clause 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: “and he will not be willing to be appeased” or “and he will not stop being angry”
