OET (OET-LV) It _stiffens tail _of_its like a _cedar the _tendons _of its _thighs _of_his[fn] they _are _intertwined.

40:17 OSHB variant note: פחד/ו: (x-qere) ’פַחֲדָ֣י/ו’: lemma_6344 morph_HNcmdc/Sp3ms id_18SUy פַחֲדָ֣י/ו

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / simile

יַחְפֹּ֣ץ זְנָב֣⁠וֹ כְמוֹ־אָ֑רֶז

(Some words not found in UHB: makes_~_stiff tail_of,its like cedar sinews_of its_thighs_of,his knit_together )

The point of this comparison is that just as the branch of a cedar tree is flexible but strong, so this beast can raise its tail and hold it flexibly in the air. The ability to hold a tail upright, which older animals can no longer do, is a sign of youthful strength. If it would be helpful in your language, you could make this point explicitly. Alternate translation: [It shows its vigor by holding up its tail as if that were a cedar branch]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

גִּידֵ֖י פַחֲדָ֣יו יְשֹׂרָֽגוּ

(Some words not found in UHB: makes_~_stiff tail_of,its like cedar sinews_of its_thighs_of,his knit_together )

If your language does not use this passive form, you could express the idea in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. Alternate translation: [the sinews of its thighs hold tightly to one another]

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.
