Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / nominaladj
גֵּ֭אֶה
proud
See how you translated the same expression in the previous verse. Alternate translation: “proud person”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor
וַהֲדֹ֖ךְ
and,tread_down
Yahweh is speaking as if he wants Job literally to trample or walk all over wicked people if he wishes to judge the world as Yahweh would do. If it would be clearer in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “and punish”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / nominaladj
רְשָׁעִ֣ים
wicked
Yahweh is using the adjective wicked as a noun to mean a certain kind of person. Your language may use adjectives in the same way. If not, you can translate this adjective with an equivalent phrase. Alternate translation: “wicked people”
Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom
תַּחְתָּֽם
where_~_stand,they
As Elihu did similarly in 36:16, here Yahweh is using the expression under them to mean at the location on which these wicked people stand. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “right where they are”
40:11-12 Job could not do God’s work of humbling the proud (Isa 2:11-12, 17; Jas 4:6; 1 Pet 5:5-6) apart from God’s authority (Mal 4:3; Rom 16:20).
OET (OET-RV) ≈Take note of every proud person and humble them.
⇔ ≈Crush wicked people where they stand.
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.
