UTNuW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / doublet

אָדָ֣ם בְּ֭לִיַּעַל אִ֣ישׁ אָ֑וֶן

humankind worthless (a)_man wicked

The phrases man of worthlessness and man of iniquity mean the same thing. Solomon is using them together for emphasis. If it would be clearer for your readers, you could express the emphasis with a single phrase. Alternate translation: “A completely useless man”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / possession

אָדָ֣ם בְּ֭לִיַּעַל אִ֣ישׁ אָ֑וֶן

humankind worthless (a)_man wicked

Here Solomon is using the possessive form to describe a man that is characterized by worthlessness and iniquity. If your language would not use the possessive form for this, you could use a different expression. Alternate translation: “A worthless man, an iniquitous man”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / gendernotations

אָדָ֣ם & אִ֣ישׁ

humankind & (a)_man

Although the term man is masculine, Solomon is using the word in a generic sense that includes both men and women. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a phrase that makes this clear. Alternate translation: “A person of … a person of”

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

ה֝וֹלֵ֗ךְ

goes_around

See how you translated the similar use of “walking” in 2:7.

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom

עִקְּשׁ֥וּת פֶּֽה

crooked speech

See how you translated this phrase in 4:24.
