UTNuW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: writing-newevent

וְ⁠הָיָ֣ה

and=it_was

Here, the word translated as And it will be introduces a new section for laws about kings. Use a word, phrase, or other method in your language that is natural for introducing a new topic. Alternate translation: “Then”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy

כְ⁠שִׁבְתּ֔⁠וֹ עַ֖ל כִּסֵּ֣א

when,sits,he on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in throne

Here, sits on the throne represents the act of ruling a kingdom. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use an equivalent expression from your language or state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “when he rules”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / possession

מַמְלַכְתּ֑⁠וֹ

his/its=kingdom

Here, Moses is using the possessive form to describe a kingdom that a king rules. If your language would not use the possessive form for this, you could use a different way to explain the relationship between a king and his kingdom. Alternate translation: “the kingdom that he rules over”

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

וְ⁠כָ֨תַב ל֜⁠וֹ אֶת־מִשְׁנֵ֨ה הַ⁠תּוֹרָ֤ה הַ⁠זֹּאת֙ עַל־סֵ֔פֶר

and,write to=him/it DOM copy the,law the,this on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in writing

This could mean that: (1) the king himself must write a copy of the law. Alternate translation: “he himself shall write in a scroll a copy of this law for himself” (2) the king must send someone to write a copy of the law for him. Alternate translation: “he shall appoint someone to write in a scroll a copy of this law for him”

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy

מִ⁠לִּ⁠פְנֵ֥י

from=to/for=face/front/presence

Here, faces represents the presence of people. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use an equivalent expression from your language or state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “in the presence of”

Note 6 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

אֶת־מִשְׁנֵ֨ה הַ⁠תּוֹרָ֤ה הַ⁠זֹּאת֙ עַל־סֵ֔פֶר מִ⁠לִּ⁠פְנֵ֥י הַ⁠כֹּהֲנִ֖ים

DOM copy the,law the,this on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in writing from=to/for=face/front/presence the,priests

Here, this law before the faces of the priests could mean: (1) the king must copy the original copy of the laws that the priests keep in the place of worship. Alternate translation: “in a scroll a copy of the original law that is kept by the priests” (2) the priests would read out the law for someone to copy it. Alternate translation: “in a scroll a copy of this law as the priests read dictate it to you”

Note 7 topic: figures-of-speech / distinguish

הַ⁠כֹּהֲנִ֖ים הַ⁠לְוִיִּֽם

the,priests the,Levitical

This does not mean “the priests and the Levites” which would imply that there are priests who are not Levites. Be sure that this distinction is clear in your translation. Alternate translation: “the priests who are also Levites”
