People tagged in the matching LV passage: God
OET (OET-RV) When God speaks, it’s awesome, like thunder,
⇔ doing amazing things that we can’t even comprehend.
Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor
יַרְעֵ֤ם אֵ֣ל בְּ֭קוֹלוֹ נִפְלָא֑וֹת
thunders god (Some words not found in UHB: thunders god with,voice_of,his wondrously producing great and=not comprehend )
Elihu is once again speaking as if thunder were God speaking. If it would be clearer in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [How marvelous thunder is! It is as if God himself is speaking]
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
וְלֹ֣א נֵדָֽע
and=not comprehend
Here the term know has the sense of “understand” rather than “be aware of.” Elihu is not saying that people do not realize that God is doing great things. He is saying that people are not able to understand or appreciate the great things they see God doing. You could indicate that in your translation if it would be helpful to your readers. Alternate translation: [that people cannot comprehend]
OET (OET-RV) When God speaks, it’s awesome, like thunder,

Note: The OET-RV is still only a first draft, and so far only a few words have been (mostly automatically) matched to the Hebrew or Greek words that they’re translated from.
Acknowledgements: The Hebrew text, lemmas, and morphology are all thanks to the OSHB and some of the glosses are from Macula Hebrew.
