UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / parallelism

Lift up your heads, you gates; be lifted up, everlasting doors

(Some words not found in UHB: lift_up gates heads,your_all's and,lift_~_up doors ancient and,come_in king the,glory )

The two phases are very similar in meaning. The words “gates” and “doors” refer to the gates of the temple. The writer is speaking to the gates as if they were a person. A gatekeeper would be the one to open the gates. See how you translated this in Psalms 24:7. Alternate translation: “Open up, you ancient gates” or “Open these ancient gates” (See also: figs-personification)

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / synecdoche

Lift up your heads

(Some words not found in UHB: lift_up gates heads,your_all's and,lift_~_up doors ancient and,come_in king the,glory )

It is uncertain what specific part of the gate is the “head.” But, it stands for the gate as a whole.
