Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
יָ֭רֵחַ וְלֹ֣א יַאֲהִ֑יל
moon and=not bright
Bildad implicitly means that compared with God’s holiness, the moon does not shine with the brightness of a pure, holy thing. You could indicate that in your translation if it would be helpful to your readers. Alternate translation: “the moon has no holy brightness”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy
בְעֵינָֽיו
in/on/at/with,sight,his
Bildad is using the term eyes by association to mean sight. Sight, in turn, represents attention, perspective, and judgment. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “in his perspective”
