UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

יְרַ֣ד שָׂרִ֔יד לְ⁠אַדִּירִ֖ים עָ֑ם יְהוָ֕ה יְרַד־לִ֖⁠י

came_down remnant to,nobles people YHWH came_down to=me

While the expression came down in both instances is probably a literal reference to travel down from higher elevations to a plain, the implicit meaning is that the remnant and people were gathering on a level place as troops for battle under the command of the nobles and Barak. You could indicate this in your translation if that would be helpful to your readers. Alternate translation: “the remnant gathered to the nobles, the people of Yahweh gathered to me”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / possession

יְרַ֣ד שָׂרִ֔יד לְ⁠אַדִּירִ֖ים

came_down remnant to,nobles

The phrase translated as to the nobles could also be a possessive form and mean “of the nobles.” There would not be a significant difference in meaning. Alternate translation: “the remnant of the nobles came down”

Note 3 topic: writing-pronouns

לִ֖⁠י

to=me

The pronoun me probably refers to Barak, since he was the one who led the Israelite army against the warriors of Sisera. Even if your language does not need to mark first-person pronouns for gender, it may be helpful to clarify the reference for your readers. Otherwise, they might take it to be Deborah, since she clearly spoke in the first person in 5:7 and probably did in 5:9 as well. Alternate translation, as in the UST: “to me, Barak”
