UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / irony

(Occurrence 0) I will be even more undignified than this

(Some words not found in UHB: and,make_~_contemptible again/more than,this and=I_will_be abased in/on/at/with,eyes,my_own and,by the,maids which/who spoken with,them honored )

David is being ironic and means the opposite of what he said. He does not believe what he did was actually undignified or that his actions in the future will be undignified.

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy

(Occurrence 0) I will be humiliated in my own eyes

(Some words not found in UHB: and,make_~_contemptible again/more than,this and=I_will_be abased in/on/at/with,eyes,my_own and,by the,maids which/who spoken with,them honored )

Here “in my own eyes” represents what a person considers or thinks about something. Alternate translation: “I will consider myself humiliated” or “I will consider myself a fool”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

(Occurrence 0) But by these slave girls you have spoken about, I will be honored

(Some words not found in UHB: and,make_~_contemptible again/more than,this and=I_will_be abased in/on/at/with,eyes,my_own and,by the,maids which/who spoken with,them honored )

If your language does not use the passive form in this way, you can state this in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. Alternate translation: “But the slave girls of whom you have spoken will honor me”
