MSG ^(9-13)“In the end I will turn things around for the people.
  I’ll give them a language undistorted, unpolluted,
Words to address God in worship
  and, united, to serve me with their shoulders to the wheel.
They’ll come from beyond the Ethiopian rivers,
  they’ll come praying—
All my scattered, exiled people
  will come home with offerings for worship.
You’ll no longer have to be ashamed
  of all those acts of rebellion.
I’ll have gotten rid of your arrogant leaders.
  No more pious strutting on my holy hill!
I’ll leave a core of people among you
  who are poor in spirit—
What’s left of Israel that’s really Israel.
  They’ll make their home in God.
This core holy people
  will not do wrong.
They won’t lie,
  won’t use words to flatter or seduce.
Content with who they are and where they are,
  unanxious, they’ll live at peace.”

UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: grammar-collectivenouns

וְ⁠לֹא־יְדַבְּר֣וּ כָזָ֔ב וְ⁠לֹֽא־יִמָּצֵ֥א בְּ⁠פִי⁠הֶ֖ם לְשׁ֣וֹן תַּרְמִ֑ית

and=not speak lies and=not found in/on/at/with,mouths,their tongue deceitful

and they will not speak a lie, and a tongue of deceit will not be found in their mouth Since Yahweh is speaking of many people, it may be more natural in your language to use plural forms here. Alternate translation: “and they will not speak lies, and tongues of deceit will not be found in their mouths”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / parallelism

וְ⁠לֹא־יְדַבְּר֣וּ כָזָ֔ב וְ⁠לֹֽא־יִמָּצֵ֥א בְּ⁠פִי⁠הֶ֖ם לְשׁ֣וֹן תַּרְמִ֑ית

and=not speak lies and=not found in/on/at/with,mouths,their tongue deceitful

These two phrases mean basically the same thing. The second emphasizes the meaning of the first by repeating the same idea with different words. You may wish to show this to your readers by including both phrases in your translation but connecting them with a word other than and. Alternate translation: “and they will not speak lies; no, tongues of deceit will not be found in their mouths”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

וְ⁠לֹֽא־יִמָּצֵ֥א בְּ⁠פִי⁠הֶ֖ם לְשׁ֣וֹן תַּרְמִ֑ית

and=not found in/on/at/with,mouths,their tongue deceitful

If your language does not use this passive form, you could express the idea in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. Alternate translation: “and no one will find deceitful tongues in their mouths”

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom

וְ⁠לֹֽא־יִמָּצֵ֥א בְּ⁠פִי⁠הֶ֖ם לְשׁ֣וֹן תַּרְמִ֑ית

and=not found in/on/at/with,mouths,their tongue deceitful

Here the word found indicates that something will not be able to be found because it will not be there. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “and there will be not be any deceitful tongues in their mouths”

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy

וְ⁠לֹֽא־יִמָּצֵ֥א בְּ⁠פִי⁠הֶ֖ם לְשׁ֣וֹן תַּרְמִ֑ית

and=not found in/on/at/with,mouths,their tongue deceitful

Yahweh is using the terms tongue and mouth by association to mean speaking. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “and they will not say any deceitful things”

Note 6 topic: grammar-connect-logic-result

כִּֽי־הֵ֛מָּה יִרְע֥וּ וְ⁠רָבְצ֖וּ וְ⁠אֵ֥ין מַחֲרִֽיד

that/for/because/then/when they(emph) pasture and,lie_down and,no afraid

If it would be more natural in your language, you could reverse the order of these phrases, since the second phrase gives the reason for the result that the first phrase describes. Alternate translation: “And since no one will frighten them, they will be able to graze and lie down”

Note 7 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

כִּֽי־הֵ֛מָּה יִרְע֥וּ וְ⁠רָבְצ֖וּ וְ⁠אֵ֥ין מַחֲרִֽיד

that/for/because/then/when they(emph) pasture and,lie_down and,no afraid

Yahweh is speaking as if the people in the remnant of Israel will be animals that will graze and lie down in pastures. He means that they will be able to live peacefully, like animals grazing undisturbed out in a field. If it would be clearer in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “But they will be able to live without anyone disturbing them”
