Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / parallelism
וְאִ֗ישׁ אֲשֶׁ֤ר יִנְאַף֙ אֶת־אֵ֣שֶׁת אִ֔ישׁ אֲשֶׁ֥ר יִנְאַ֖ף אֶת־אֵ֣שֶׁת רֵעֵ֑הוּ
and,man which/who commits_adultery DOM wife_of (a)_man which/who commits_adultery DOM wife_of his/its=neighbour
These two phrases mean basically the same thing and emphasize that the man has committed adultery with another man’s wife. You can translate this parallelism into one statement that conveys the seriousness of these actions. Alternate translation: “And who ever commits adultery with another man’s wife, indeed, his neighbor's wife”

The words adulterer and adulteress refer to the man and woman who have committed adultery, respectively. If this would not be clear in your language, consider stating the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “the man and the woman who have committed adultery”
