redeemed (Some words not found in UHB: redeemed soul,me from,going_down in/on/at/with,pit and,life,I in/on/at/with,light see )

If you decided in the previous verse to translate this quotation in such a way that there would not be a quotation within a quotation, you can continue doing that here. Alternate translation: “He will say that God has redeemed his soul from going over into the pit and that his life life will see light”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / synecdoche

נַ֭פְשׁוֹ & וְ֝חַיָּתוֹ

(Some words not found in UHB: redeemed soul,me from,going_down in/on/at/with,pit and,life,I in/on/at/with,light see )

Elihu is using parts of this person, his soul and his life, to mean all of him in the act of being redeemed. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “me … and I”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy

וְ֝חַיָּתוֹ & בָּ⁠א֥וֹר תִּרְאֶֽה

(Some words not found in UHB: redeemed soul,me from,going_down in/on/at/with,pit and,life,I in/on/at/with,light see )

This person is using the term light by association to mean life on earth. As in many other places in the book, here the realm of the living is described as a place of light, by contrast with the realm of the dead, which is a place of darkness. (For example, in 18:18, “They will drive him from light into darkness, and they will chase him from the world.”) If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “and I will continue to live on earth”
