UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: writing-pronouns

הֶלְאָ֑⁠נִי

worn_~_out,me

The pronoun he most likely refers to God, since the following pronoun you seems clearly to address God. Job seems to be referring to God in the third person in order to make a transition from speaking to his friends, and he then seems to be addressing God directly in the second person. It may be helpful to clarify this for your readers. Alternate translation: “you, God, have exhausted me”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / yousingular

הֲ֝שִׁמּ֗וֹתָ

devastated

The word you is singular here because Job is using it to refer to God. So use the singular form in your translation if your language marks that distinction.
