UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

(Occurrence 0) on the heights of Zion

(Some words not found in UHB: and,come and,shout_for_joy in/on/at/with,height_of Tsiyyōn/(Zion) and,radiant to/towards goodness_of YHWH on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in grain and,over new_wine and,over oil and,over sons_of flock_of_sheep/goats and,herd and,be life_of,their like,garden watered and=not they_will_do_again to,languish again/more )

“on Zion, the high place” or “on Mount Zion.” Being on top of a hill is a metaphor for being happy. If your language associates mountain tops with sadness, it would be best to leave out the metaphor.

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / simile

(Occurrence 0) like a watered garden

This means they will be strong and healthy, and they will prosper.

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / hyperbole

(Occurrence 0) they will never again feel any more sorrow

The world “never” is a generalization. The Israelites will almost always feel joy.
