UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

לֹֽא־יִשָּׂ֥א לְ⁠פִשְׁעֲ⁠כֶ֖ם וּ⁠לְ⁠חַטֹּאותֵי⁠כֶֽם

not forgive to,transgressions_of,your_all's and,to,sins_of,your_all's

Joshua is speaking as if transgressions and sins were objects that could be lifted away from someone. If it would be clearer in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [He will not forgive your transgressions and your sins]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / doublet

לְ⁠פִשְׁעֲ⁠כֶ֖ם וּ⁠לְ⁠חַטֹּאותֵי⁠כֶֽם

to,transgressions_of,your_all's and,to,sins_of,your_all's

The terms transgressions and sins mean similar things. Joshua is using the two terms together for emphasis. If it would be clearer for your readers, you could express the emphasis with a single phrase. Alternate translation: [your serious sins]
