uW Translation Notes:

וַ⁠יַּ֤רְא הָֽ⁠אֱלֹהִים֙ אֶֽת־מַ֣עֲשֵׂי⁠הֶ֔ם כִּי־שָׁ֖בוּ מִ⁠דַּרְכָּ֣⁠ם הָ⁠רָעָ֑ה

and=he/it_saw the=ʼElohīm DOM deeds_of,their that/for/because/then/when turned from,way_of,their (the),evil

Alternate translation: [God saw that they stopped doing evil actions]

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

שָׁ֖בוּ מִ⁠דַּרְכָּ֣⁠ם הָ⁠רָעָ֑ה

turned from,way_of,their (the),evil

Here the author is speaking of them stopping their sinning as if they turned away from walking on a path toward evil ways and started walking in the opposite direction. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [they repented from doing evil]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

עַל־הָ⁠רָעָ֛ה

on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in the,evil

The word translated as “evil” here is very broad, including moral evil, physical evil, and everything that is bad. It is the same word used in the previous sentence (and verse 8) to describe the actions of the Ninevites. The author is showing that when people repent of moral evil, God relents from doing physical evil (punishment). God never does moral evil. If this is clear in your language, you may want to use the same word in both sentences. If that is not clear, you may want to use different words. Alternate translation: [in regard to the punishment]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / nominaladj

הָ⁠רָעָ֛ה

the,evil

Here the author is using the adjective evil as a noun to refer to an evil thing. Your language may use adjectives in the same way. If not, you could translate this word with an equivalent phrase. Alternate translation: [the evil thing] or [the terrible action]

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

וְ⁠לֹ֥א עָשָֽׂה

and=not he/it_had_made

Here, what God did not do could be made explicit if it would be helpful in your language. Alternate translation: [and he did not punish them] or [and he did not destroy them]
