uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: translate-unknown

נְזִירֶ֨י⁠הָ֙

of_high_rank_of,its_ones

This could mean: (1) Nazirites refers to people who had taken a special vow of dedication to God, as described in Numbers 6:1–21. Their pure appearance would reflect their consecrated life. Alternate translation: [Her consecrated ones] or (2) the word refers more generally to nobles, leaders, or people who were set apart by their high position. The UST follows this reading. Alternate translation: [Her nobles]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / simile

זַכּ֤וּ & מִ⁠שֶּׁ֔לֶג צַח֖וּ מֵ⁠חָלָ֑ב

purer & (Some words not found in UHB: purer of_high_rank_of,its_ones more,than_snow whiter more,than_milk ruddy bone/body more,than_corals sapphire polishing_of,their )

The point of this comparison is that just as snow and milk are bright and clean, so the Nazirites had a pure appearance. If it would be helpful in your language, you could make this point explicitly. Alternate translation: [were as clean looking as snow; their appearance was as bright as milk]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / simile

אָ֤דְמוּ עֶ֨צֶם֙ מִ⁠פְּנִינִ֔ים סַפִּ֖יר גִּזְרָתָֽ⁠ם

ruddy bone/body (Some words not found in UHB: purer of_high_rank_of,its_ones more,than_snow whiter more,than_milk ruddy bone/body more,than_corals sapphire polishing_of,their )

The point of this comparison is that just as corals have a rich red color and sapphire is very precious, so the Nazirites’ bodies had a healthy, ruddy complexion and fine form. If it would be helpful in your language, you could make this point explicitly. Alternate translation: [Their complexion was as healthy-looking as coral; their form was as beautiful as sapphire]
