UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy

כָּל־בָּשָׂ֣ר

all/each/any/every flesh/meat

Elihu is using the term flesh by association to mean the creatures that God made, which generally have flesh. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “all creatures”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / euphemism

יִגְוַ֣ע & יָ֑חַד

perish & together

Elihu is using the word expire to mean “die.” This is a mild way of referring to death. Your language may have a similar expression that you can use in your translation. You could also use plain language. Alternate translation: “would pass away together” or “would die at the same time”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

וְ֝⁠אָדָ֗ם עַל־עָפָ֥ר יָשֽׁוּב

and=human/ʼĀdām on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in dust return

Elihu does not mean that people would actively return to the dust on their own. Rather, as in 33:6, he is referring to the way that God originally formed people from the dust of the earth, and he means that humans would die and their bodies would become dust again. You could indicate that in your translation if it would be helpful to your readers. Alternate translation: “and people would die be buried and their bodies would decompose and become part of the dirt again”
