UTNuW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / parallelism

(Occurrence 0) The highways are deserted; there are no more travelers

(Some words not found in UHB: wildernessed highways he/it_rested travelers road broken treaty despised cities not hold_~_inhigh_regard ʼEnōshh )

Both of the phrases emphasize that there are no travelers on the highways. These can be combined and stated in active form. Alternate translation: “People no longer travel on the highways” (See also: figs-activepassive)

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

(Occurrence 0) Covenants are broken, witnesses are despised, and mankind is not respected

(Some words not found in UHB: wildernessed highways he/it_rested travelers road broken treaty despised cities not hold_~_inhigh_regard ʼEnōshh )

This passage may refer to general conditions of corruption in Israel, or it may refer to the nation’s inability to make reliable peace treaties with Assyria. 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: “People break covenants that they have made, people ignore the testimony of witnesses, and people do not respect one another”
