יֵֽ֭צְרוּ צַעֲדֵ֣י אוֹנ֑⁠וֹ

Bildad is using one sign of weakness, a shortening stride, to indicate weakness in general. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “He will become weak”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / possession

צַעֲדֵ֣י אוֹנ֑⁠וֹ
