Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy
וְעֵינֵ֥י רְשָׁעִ֗ים תִּ֫כְלֶ֥ינָה
and,eyes wicked fail
Zophar is referring to death by association with the way people’s eyes fail when they are about to die (either in the sense of becoming visibly dim or in the sense of no longer seeing well). If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “But the wicked will die”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / personification
וּ֭מָנוֹס אָבַ֣ד מִנְהֶ֑ם
and,way_of_escape lost to,them
Zophar is speaking of escape as if it were a living thing that could perish. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “yes, they will not be able to escape dying”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / euphemism
וְ֝תִקְוָתָ֗ם מַֽפַּח־נָֽפֶשׁ
and,hope,their gasp_of soul
Zophar is using the phrase expiration of breath, which means “breathing out,” to mean dying. This is a mild way of referring to death. Your language may have a similar expression that you could use in your translation. You could also use plain language. Alternate translation: “they will have no hope other than to pass away” or “they will have no hope other than to die”
