uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

בֶן־קָ֑שֶׁת

(ⱱen-qāshet)

Yahweh is speaking as if an arrow were literally the son of the bow from which it was shot. If it would be clearer in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “An arrow”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

לְ֝⁠קַ֗שׁ נֶהְפְּכוּ־ל֥⁠וֹ אַבְנֵי־קָֽלַע

(lə⁠qash nehpəkū-l⁠ō ʼaⱱnēy-qālaˊ)

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: “with it, the stones of the sling become chaff”

לְ֝⁠קַ֗שׁ נֶהְפְּכוּ־ל֥⁠וֹ אַבְנֵי־קָֽלַע

(lə⁠qash nehpəkū-l⁠ō ʼaⱱnēy-qālaˊ)

Yahweh is speaking as if stones slung at Leviathan from a sling would literally become chaff. If it would be clearer in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “stones slung at it do not hurt it any more than chaff would”
