MSG(8-16)“If I were in your shoes, I’d go straight to God,
  I’d throw myself on the mercy of God.
After all, he’s famous for great and unexpected acts;
  there’s no end to his surprises.
He gives rain, for instance, across the wide earth,
  sends water to irrigate the fields.
He raises up the down-and-out,
  gives firm footing to those sinking in grief.
He aborts the schemes of conniving crooks,
  so that none of their plots come to term.
He catches the know-it-alls in their conspiracies—
  all that intricate intrigue swept out with the trash!
Suddenly they’re disoriented, plunged into darkness;
  they can’t see to put one foot in front of the other.
But the downtrodden are saved by God,
  saved from the murderous plots, saved from the iron fist.
And so the poor continue to hope,
  while injustice is bound and gagged.

TSNTyndale Study Notes:

5:9-16 Eliphaz’s doxology praised God as the wonder-working Creator and Sustainer of the universe (5:9-10) and as the righteous Judge who brings down the powerful and lifts up the poor (5:11-16).


UTNuW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / nominaladj

גְ֭דֹלוֹת & נִ֝פְלָא֗וֹת

great & marvellous

Eliphaz is using the adjectives great and marvelous as nouns to mean certain kinds of things. Your language may use adjectives in the same way. If not, you can translate these words with equivalent phrases. For example, you could add the word things in both cases, as the ULT does to show the meaning.

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

וְ⁠אֵ֣ין חֵ֑קֶר

and,cannot that_~_befathomed

Eliphaz means implicitly that even if people search or seek to find out how God does great things, they cannot succeed in learning this. Express this in the way that would be most natural in your language. Alternate translation: “that are unsearchable” or “that no one can understand”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / ellipsis

נִ֝פְלָא֗וֹת

marvellous

Eliphaz is leaving out some of the words that in many languages a sentence would need in order to be complete. You can supply these words from the context if that would be clearer in your language. Alternate translation: “and who does marvelous things”
