lion perishes for,lack prey and=the_sons lioness scattered

Eliphaz is continuing to speak of wicked people as if they were literally lions. If it would be clearer in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “Yes, God will keep wicked people from exploiting righteous people, and in the end the wicked people will become poor and lose their families”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

וּ⁠בְנֵ֥י לָ֝בִ֗יא יִתְפָּרָֽדוּ

and=the_sons lioness scattered

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: “and the cubs of the lioness scatter”
