OET interlinear JOB 20:11

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / synecdoche

עַ֭צְמוֹתָי⁠ו מָלְא֣וּ

bones_of,his full_of

Zophar is using one part of a wicked person, his bones, to mean his whole body. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [His body is full]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / euphemism

וְ֝⁠עִמּ֗⁠וֹ עַל־עָפָ֥ר תִּשְׁכָּֽב

and,with,him on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in dust (Some words not found in UHB: bones_of,his full_of עלומ,ו and,with,him on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in dust lie_down )

Zophar is using the phrase lie down … in the dust to mean “die.” This is a poetic way of referring to death. Your language may have a similar expression that you could use in your translation. Alternate translation: [but it will die with him]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / personification

וְ֝⁠עִמּ֗⁠וֹ עַל־עָפָ֥ר תִּשְׁכָּֽב

and,with,him on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in dust (Some words not found in UHB: bones_of,his full_of עלומ,ו and,with,him on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in dust lie_down )

Zophar is speaking of the vigor of a wicked person as if it were a living thing that could lie down in the dust or die. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [but he will die while he is still young and strong]
