UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

גַּם־אֵ֥לֶּה לַֽ⁠חֲכָמִ֑ים

also/yet these of,wise

These here refers to a new collection of proverbs that continues from this verse to the last verse of this chapter. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state this explicitly. Alternate translation: “The following proverbs are additional sayings of the wise ones”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom

הַֽכֵּר־פָּנִ֖ים

to_show_partiality faces

Recognizing faces is an idiom that means “to show partiality” or “to favor” someone. If this phrase does not have that meaning in your language, you could use an idiom from your language that does have this meaning or state the meaning plainly. See how you translated the similar use of “lift the face” in 18:5. Alternate translation: “Five pride of place to certain people” or “Being partial to certain people”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns

בְּ⁠מִשְׁפָּ֣ט

in/on/at/with,judgment

If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea of judgment, you could express the same idea in another way. Alternate translation: “when judging”

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / litotes

בַּל־טֽוֹב

not good

See how you translated the same use of not good in 16:29.
