UTNuW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / rquestion

כִּ֤י רִנְנַ֣ת רְ֭שָׁעִים מִ⁠קָּר֑וֹב וְ⁠שִׂמְחַ֖ת חָנֵ֣ף עֲדֵי־רָֽגַע

that/for/because/then/when exulting wicked at,short and,joy godless for moment

In this verse, Zophar completes the question that he began in the previous verse, using the question form for emphasis. If you would not use the question form for that purpose in your language, you could translate this as a statement or as an exclamation. Alternate translation: “that the triumph of the wicked is from near, and the joy of the godless is for a moment!”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / nominaladj

רְ֭שָׁעִים

wicked

Zophar is using the adjective wicked, which is plural, as a noun to mean a certain group of people. Your language may use adjectives in the same way. If not, you can translate this word with an equivalent phrase. Alternate translation: “wicked people”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom

מִ⁠קָּר֑וֹב

at,short

Zophar is using this expression to mean that the triumph of the wicked does not extend very far. He means that it does not extend very far in time. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “does not last very long”

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / nominaladj

חָנֵ֣ף

godless

Job is using the adjective godless, which is singular, as a noun to mean a certain kind of person. Your language may use adjectives in the same way. If not, you can translate this word with an equivalent phrase. Alternate translation: “the godless person”

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / genericnoun

חָנֵ֣ף

godless

Zophar is not referring to a specific godless person. He means all godless people. It may be more natural in your language to express this meaning by using a plural form. Alternate translation: “godless people”
