uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / simile

נְגַֽשְׁשָׁ֤ה כַֽ⁠עִוְרִים֙ קִ֔יר וּ⁠כְ⁠אֵ֥ין עֵינַ֖יִם נְגַשֵּׁ֑שָׁה

grope_along like_(the),[people] wall and,like,there_[are]_not eyes grope

The point of this comparison is that just as the blind must grope along a wall because they cannot see, so the people grope because they do not know what they should do. If it would be helpful in your language, you could make this point explicitly. Alternate translation: [We do not know what we should do; we feel along the wall like people who are blind, and we grope about like people who have no eyes]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / nominaladj

כַֽ⁠עִוְרִים֙

like_(the),[people]

Isaiah is using the adjective blind as a noun to mean a certain kind of person. Your language may use adjectives in the same way. If not, you can translate this adjective with an equivalent phrase. Alternate translation: [like blind people]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / simile

כָּשַׁ֤לְנוּ בַֽ⁠צָּהֳרַ֨יִם֙ כַּ⁠נֶּ֔שֶׁף

stumble at,noon(s) like,twilight

The point of this comparison is that just as a person stumbles in the dimness of twilight, so the people stumble even at noon, when it is fully light. If it would be helpful in your language, you could make this point explicitly. Alternate translation: [We stumble at noon, when it is fully light, as easily as a person stumbles in the dimness of twilight]

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / simile

בָּ⁠אַשְׁמַנִּ֖ים כַּ⁠מֵּתִֽים

among,people like,who_have]_died

The point of this comparison is that just as ones having died have no strength, so the people are helpless even among the strong. If it would be helpful in your language, you could make this point explicitly. Alternate translation: [among the strong, we are as powerless as those who have died]

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / ellipsis

בָּ⁠אַשְׁמַנִּ֖ים כַּ⁠מֵּתִֽים

(Some words not found in UHB: grope_along like_(the),[people] wall and,like,there_[are]_not eyes grope stumble at,noon(s) like,twilight among,people like,who_have]_died )

Isaiah 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: [among people who are strong we are like ones who have died]

OET (OET-LV)We_grope_for like_(the)_people a_wall and_like_there_are_not eyes we_grope we_have_stumbled at_noon(s) like_twilight among_people like_who_have]_died.

OET (OET-RV)We grope along the wall like the blind,
