OET interlinear JOB 36:12

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / euphemism

בְּ⁠שֶׁ֣לַח יַעֲבֹ֑רוּ

(Some words not found in UHB: and=if not they_will_understand by,a_missile perish and,they_will_expire like,not knowledge )

See how you translated the similar expression in 33:18. Alternate translation: [someone will kill them with a weapon]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / euphemism

וְ֝⁠יִגְוְע֗וּ

and,they_will_expire

Elihu is using the word expire to mean “die.” This is a mild way of referring to death. Your language may have a similar expression that you can use in your translation. You could also use plain language. Alternate translation: [and they will pass away] or [and they will die]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns

כִּ⁠בְלִי־דָֽעַת

(Some words not found in UHB: and=if not they_will_understand by,a_missile perish and,they_will_expire like,not knowledge )

If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea of knowledge, you could express the same idea in another way. Alternate translation: [because they acted as if they did not know how God wanted them to live]
