UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / nominaladj

אֵֽת־כָּל־גָּבֹ֥הַּ יִרְאֶ֑ה

(ʼēt-ⱪāl-ggāⱱoha yirʼeh)

Yahweh is using the adjective high as a noun to mean a certain kind of thing. Your language may use adjectives in the same way. If not, you can translate this adjective with an equivalent phrase. In this context, it indicates strength or power, not simply great height. Alternate translation: “It sees everything that is powerful”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom

אֵֽת־כָּל־גָּבֹ֥הַּ יִרְאֶ֑ה

(ʼēt-ⱪāl-ggāⱱoha yirʼeh)

Yahweh is using the term see in a specific sense. It could mean: (1) that Leviathan can look directly at any powerful creature without being fearful or intimidated. Alternate translation: “It can look at any powerful thing without becoming afraid” (2) that Leviathan looks down disdainfully at all other powerful creatures. Alternate translation: “It disdains all other powerful things”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom

ה֝֗וּא מֶ֣לֶךְ עַל־כָּל־בְּנֵי־שָֽׁחַץ

(hūʼ melek ˊal-ⱪāl-bənēy-shāḩaʦ)

In this context, the expression sons of describes something that shares the qualities of something else. Yahweh is using this expression to describe the behavior and character of certain creatures. While they do not literally feel pride as people would, they act as if they are superior to other creatures, for example, by not staying out of their way. If it would be helpful to your readers, you could use an equivalent expression from your language or state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “it is king over all the dangerous animals”

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

ה֝֗וּא מֶ֣לֶךְ עַל־כָּל־בְּנֵי־שָֽׁחַץ

(hūʼ melek ˊal-ⱪāl-bənēy-shāḩaʦ)

Yahweh is speaking as if Leviathan were literally a king. He means that no other animal can challenge Leviathan. If it would be clearer in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “no other dangerous animal can challenge it”
