UTNuW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

דֶּ֣רֶךְ

road/way_of

Here, way has the same meaning as “path” in the previous verse. See how you translated “path” there.

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / simile

כָּֽ⁠אֲפֵלָ֑ה

like_the,deep_darkness

Here Solomon compares the way of the wicked ones to darkness. He means that the wicked people are always in danger, just like people who walk in darkness are in danger because they cannot see where they are going. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “is dangerous”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

לֹ֥א יָ֝דְע֗וּ בַּ⁠מֶּ֥ה יִכָּשֵֽׁלוּ

not know in/on/at/with,what stumble

Here Solomon speaks of people experiencing harm as if they were stumbling over an object in the path on which they were walking. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “they do not know why they experience harm”
