UTNuW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

תַּרְקִ֣יעַ עִ֭מּ⁠וֹ לִ⁠שְׁחָקִ֑ים

spread_out with=him/it to,skies

People in this culture believed that the sky was a solid object, a great dome that God had made and placed above the earth. Elihu is speaking as if God had literally melted metal and then hammered it flat in order to make the sky. If it would be clearer in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “Would you be able to create the sky as he did”

Note 2 topic: translate-unknown

כִּ⁠רְאִ֥י מוּצָֽק

as,mirror molten

A mirror is an object that reflects images. People look into mirrors to check their appearance. In this culture, mirrors were made of bright metal. If your readers would not be familiar with what a mirror is, in your translation you could use the name of a comparable metal object in your culture, or you could use a general expression. Alternate translation: “as an object cast from metal”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

כִּ⁠רְאִ֥י מוּצָֽק

as,mirror molten

If your language does not use this passive form, you could express the idea in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. Alternate translation: “as a mirror that someone has cast from metal”
