Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / rquestion
הֲיֵ֣שׁ מִ֭סְפָּר לִגְדוּדָ֑יו וְעַל־מִ֝֗י לֹא־יָק֥וּם אוֹרֵֽהוּ
?,is_there number to,troops,his and,upon who? not rise light,his
Job is using the question form for emphasis. If you would not use the question form for that purpose in your language, you could translate these questions as statements or as exclamations. Alternate translation: “There is no number to his troops! His light arises on everyone!”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor
הֲיֵ֣שׁ מִ֭סְפָּר לִגְדוּדָ֑יו
?,is_there number to,troops,his
In this verse, Bildad is describing God’s greatness by saying that at night, there are too many stars in the sky to count, and by day, the sun shines all over the world. So in this context, the word troops implicitly refers to the stars as if they were soldiers. Alternate translation: “Is there a number to the stars?” or “There are too many stars in the sky to count!”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy
וְעַל־מִ֝֗י לֹא־יָק֥וּם אוֹרֵֽהוּ
and,upon who? not rise light,his
Bildad is using the term light by association to mean the sun. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “And upon whom does the sun not rise?” or “And the sun shines on everyone!”
Note: The OET-RV is still only a first draft, and so far only a few words have been (mostly automatically) matched to the Greek words that they’re translated from.
