UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

לָ֘בַ֤שׁ בְּשָׂרִ֣⁠י רִ֭מָּה וְג֣וּשׁ עָפָ֑ר

clothed flesh,my worms (Some words not found in UHB: clothed flesh,my worms and,encrusted dust skin,my hardens and,breaks_out )

Job is speaking as if he were literally wearing worms and dust clods like clothing on his body. He means that he has these things all over his body. If it would be clearer in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “My flesh is covered with worms and dust clods”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / genericnoun

לָ֘בַ֤שׁ בְּשָׂרִ֣⁠י רִ֭מָּה וְג֣וּשׁ עָפָ֑ר

clothed flesh,my worms (Some words not found in UHB: clothed flesh,my worms and,encrusted dust skin,my hardens and,breaks_out )

Job is not referring to a specific worm or clod of dust. He means worms and dust clods in general. Express this in the way that would be most natural in your language. “My flesh is covered with worms and dust clods”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / synecdoche

בְּשָׂרִ֣⁠י

flesh,my

Job is using one part of himself, his flesh, to mean his whole body. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “My body”

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

עוֹרִ֥⁠י רָ֝גַ֗ע וַ⁠יִּמָּאֵֽס

skin,my hardens and,breaks_out

Job is referring to the boils with which God allowed the accuser to afflict him, as the book describes in 2:7. You could indicate this in your translation if it would be helpful to your readers. Alternate translation: “my skin breaks and festers because of the boils that I have”
