UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: grammar-connect-words-phrases

כִּֽי

that/for/because/then/when

Here, the word because indicates that what follows it in this verse is the reason for what precedes it in 73:2). Use a natural form for indicating this relationship. Alternate translation: “for”

Note 2 topic: grammar-connect-logic-result

קִ֭נֵּאתִי בַּֽ⁠הוֹלְלִ֑ים שְׁל֖וֹם רְשָׁעִ֣ים אֶרְאֶֽה

envied in/on/at/with,arrogant prosperity wicked saw

If it would be more natural in your language, you could reverse the order of these phrases, since the second phrase gives the reason for the result that the first phrase describes. Alternate translation: “when I saw the prosperity of the wicked, I was envious of the arrogant”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / nominaladj

בַּֽ⁠הוֹלְלִ֑ים שְׁל֖וֹם רְשָׁעִ֣ים אֶרְאֶֽה

in/on/at/with,arrogant prosperity wicked saw

The Psalmist is using the adjectives arrogant and wicked as nouns in order to describe a group of people. Your language may use adjectives in the same way. If not, you could translate these words with a noun phrase. Alternate translation: “of arrogant people when I saw the prosperity of wicked people” or “of the people who are arrogant when I saw the prosperity of the people who are wicked”

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns

שְׁל֖וֹם רְשָׁעִ֣ים אֶרְאֶֽה

prosperity wicked saw

If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea of prosperity, you could express the same idea with a verb such as “prospered” as modeled by the UST, or you could express the idea in some other way that is natural in your language.
