on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in right,my lie incurable wound,my without transgression
If you decided in the previous verse to translate this quotation in such a way that there would not be a quotation within a quotation, you can continue doing that here. Alternate translation: “Job has said that he would not lie about his justice and that his arrow is incurable, without transgression”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / rquestion
עַל־מִשְׁפָּטִ֥י אֲכַזֵּ֑ב
on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in right,my lie
In this quotation by Elihu, 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 this as a statement or as an exclamation. Alternate translation: “I would not lie about my justice!”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns
עַל־מִשְׁפָּטִ֥י אֲכַזֵּ֑ב
on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in right,my lie
If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea of justice, you could express the same idea in another way. Alternate translation: “I would not lie about whether I had done the right thing!”
Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy
חִצִּ֣י
wound,my
In this quotation by Elihu, Job is using the term arrow by association to mean a wound from an arrow. (Elihu is referring back to what Job said in 16:13 about God’s archers fatally wounding him with arrows.) If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “My wound”
Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / ellipsis
בְלִי־פָֽשַׁע
without transgression
In this quotation by Elihu, Job 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: “even though I am without transgression”
34:6 Eliphaz had accused Job of being a liar (15:5), fulfilling Job’s earlier worry (6:28-29).
• My suffering (literally My arrow): For the link with the Lord’s arrows, see 6:4; 16:13; Jer 10:19; 15:18; 30:12, 15; Lam 3:12; Mic 1:9; Nah 3:19.
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.
