42:9-10 The psalmist brings his many doubts, discouragements, and questions directly to God.
Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor
לְאֵ֥ל סַלְעִי֮
(Some words not found in UHB: by_day commands YHWH steadfast_love,his and=in_the=night song,his with,me prayer to,God life,my )
The author is using the phrase my rock to mean that God protects him like a rock protects a person from their enemy. If it would be helpful to your readers, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “to God, who is like a protective rock to me”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / quotations
אוֹמְרָ֤ה ׀ לְאֵ֥ל סַלְעִי֮ לָמָ֪ה שְׁכַ֫חְתָּ֥נִי לָֽמָּה־קֹדֵ֥ר אֵלֵ֗ךְ בְּלַ֣חַץ אוֹיֵֽב
(Some words not found in UHB: by_day commands YHWH steadfast_love,his and=in_the=night song,his with,me prayer to,God life,my )
It may be more natural in your language to have an indirect quotation here. Alternate translation: “I will ask God, my rock, why he has forgotten me, and why I must go around mourning because of the oppression of my enemies”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / rquestion
לָמָ֪ה שְׁכַ֫חְתָּ֥נִי לָֽמָּה־קֹדֵ֥ר אֵלֵ֗ךְ בְּלַ֣חַץ אוֹיֵֽב
(Some words not found in UHB: by_day commands YHWH steadfast_love,his and=in_the=night song,his with,me prayer to,God life,my )
The author is using the question form to challenge God. If you would not use the question form for this purpose in your language, you could translate this as a statement or an exclamation. Alternate translation: “You have surely forgotten me! I am always walking around mourning because of the oppression of my enemies!”
Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns
בְּלַ֣חַץ אוֹיֵֽב
(Some words not found in UHB: by_day commands YHWH steadfast_love,his and=in_the=night song,his with,me prayer to,God life,my )
If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea of oppression, you could express the same idea in another way. Alternate translation: “because of how my enemies oppress me”

בְּרֶ֤צַח ׀ בְּֽעַצְמוֹתַ֗י חֵרְפ֥וּנִי צוֹרְרָ֑י
