The original ULT required three notes. Without adapting the sentence to be a translation resource, you would need to add the four notes above. You would need to add notes like this for most of the verses in the Bible. It would be much faster and easier to adapt the Bible translation to be a translation resource, or to translate the UST. The resulting resource set would also be easier for the translator to use.

For these reasons, we recommend that you either translate the ULT or adapt your existing Bible translation to become a translation resource. You would then call it something else, such as “The Literal Text (based on the KJV).” Then there would be no confusion between the resource that you were supplying to translators and the Bible version that people use in church.
