UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns

בָּתֵּי⁠הֶ֣ם שָׁל֣וֹם

houses,their safe

If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea of peace, you could express the same idea in another way. In this instance, Job is using an abstract noun with the sense of an adjective. Alternate translation: “Their houses are peaceful”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy

בָּתֵּי⁠הֶ֣ם

houses,their

Job could be using the term houses by association to mean the households of wicked people. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “Their households”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy

וְ⁠לֹ֤א שֵׁ֖בֶט אֱל֣וֹהַּ עֲלֵי⁠הֶֽם

and=not rod god upon,them

Job is using the term rod by association to mean punishment. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation, as in UST: “and God does not punish them”
