Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
מַפְּלֵ֣י בְשָׂר֣וֹ דָבֵ֑קוּ יָצ֥וּק עָ֝לָ֗יו בַּל־יִמּֽוֹט
(Some words not found in UHB: makes_~_boil like_a,pot depths sea makes like_a,pot_of_ointment )
Yahweh is referring to the underbelly of Leviathan as the folds of its flesh. In most animals, this area is soft and vulnerable, but in Leviathan it is tight and secure. You could indicate the meaning of this expression in your translation if that would be helpful to your readers. Alternate translation: “Its underbelly parts are tight and secure”

יָצ֥וּק עָ֝לָ֗יו בַּל־יִמּֽוֹט
(Some words not found in UHB: makes_~_boil like_a,pot depths sea makes like_a,pot_of_ointment )
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: “they stay firmly in place”
