UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / reduplication

אִם־שׁ֣וֹב תָּשׁ֗וּבוּ

if to_turn turn_back

Joshua is repeating forms of the verb turn in order to intensify the idea that it expresses. If your language can repeat words for intensification, it would be appropriate to do that here in your translation. If not, your language may have another way of expressing the emphasis. Alternate translation: [if you definitely turn]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

וּ⁠דְבַקְתֶּם֙ בְּ⁠יֶ֨תֶר֙ הַ⁠גּוֹיִ֣ם הָ⁠אֵ֔לֶּה

and,join in/on/at/with,survivors_of the=nations the=these

Joshua is speaking as if the Israelites could physically cling to these nations. If it would be clearer in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [and become loyal to the remnant of these nations]
