UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns

יָגַ֤עְתִּי ׀ בְּֽ⁠אַנְחָתִ֗⁠י

(Some words not found in UHB: that/for/because/then/when not in/on/at/with,death remembrance,you in/on/at/with,sheol who? give_~_praise to,you )

The author’s groaning represents the pain or distress that he feels. If your language does not use an abstract noun for that idea, you could express the same idea in another way. Alternate translation: “I am very tired because I hurt”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / parallelism

מִטָּתִ֑⁠י & עַרְשִׂ֥⁠י

(Some words not found in UHB: that/for/because/then/when not in/on/at/with,death remembrance,you in/on/at/with,sheol who? give_~_praise to,you )

These are different words for the same thing. Alternate translation: “my sleeping place … my sleeping place”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / hyperbole

אַשְׂחֶ֣ה בְ⁠כָל־לַ֭יְלָה מִטָּתִ֑⁠י בְּ֝⁠דִמְעָתִ֗⁠י עַרְשִׂ֥⁠י אַמְסֶֽה

(Some words not found in UHB: that/for/because/then/when not in/on/at/with,death remembrance,you in/on/at/with,sheol who? give_~_praise to,you )

The author says his tears cause his bed to swim and his couch to melt here as extreme statements for emphasis. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a different way to express the emphasis. Alternate translation: “Every night my bed gets very wet from my many tears that make my whole couch very wet”
