UTNuW Translation Notes:

(Occurrence 0) feast on

(Some words not found in UHB: the=ones_eating on,delicacies perish in/on/at/with,streets the,nurtured in purple embrace ash_heaps )

Alternate translation: “eat much”

(Occurrence 0) now starve in the streets

(Some words not found in UHB: the=ones_eating on,delicacies perish in/on/at/with,streets the,nurtured in purple embrace ash_heaps )

These people no longer have homes, so they live outside along the streets.

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

(Occurrence 0) Those who were brought up wearing scarlet clothing

(Some words not found in UHB: the=ones_eating on,delicacies perish in/on/at/with,streets the,nurtured in purple embrace ash_heaps )

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: “those who grew up wearing scarlet clothing” or “those who wore scarlet clothing when they were growing up”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy

(Occurrence 0) scarlet clothing

(Some words not found in UHB: the=ones_eating on,delicacies perish in/on/at/with,streets the,nurtured in purple embrace ash_heaps )

Here this phrase is a metonym for luxurious, expensive, and comfortable clothing, at least some of which was probably scarlet. Alternate translation: “luxurious clothing”

(Occurrence 0) now lie on piles of ashes

(Some words not found in UHB: the=ones_eating on,delicacies perish in/on/at/with,streets the,nurtured in purple embrace ash_heaps )

This is because they no longer have homes and soft beds.
