UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / simile

כֵּ֗ן

yes/correct/thus/so

So here indicates that what follows explains the meaning of the statements made in the previous two verses. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a fuller expression. Alternate translation: “In the same situation”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / euphemism

הַ֭⁠בָּא אֶל & הַ⁠נֹּגֵ֥עַ בָּֽ⁠הּ

the,goes_in to/towards & the,touches in/on/at/with,her

Here, going to and touches both refer to someone having sex with another person. This is a polite way of referring to something that is offensive or embarrassing in some cultures. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a different polite way of referring to this act or you could express the meaning plainly. See how you translated the same use of “enter” in 2:19. Alternate translation: “is the one who has sexual relations with … one who has sexual relations with her” or “is the one who sleeps with … one who sleeps with her”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / litotes

לֹ֥א יִ֝נָּקֶ֗ה

not go_unpunished

Solomon is using a figure of speech here that expresses a strongly positive meaning by using a negative word, not, together with an expression that is the opposite of the intended meaning. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express the meaning positively. Alternate translation: “will certainly be guilty”

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy

לֹ֥א יִ֝נָּקֶ֗ה

not go_unpunished

Here Solomon uses not remain blameless to refer to the outcome of not being blameless, which is being punished for being guilty. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “will not avoid punishment” or “will not remain unpunished”
