Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor
זָקֵ֖ן וּשְׂבַ֥ע יָמִֽים
old and,full days
The author is speaking as if days were an object and as if Job were a container that was full of them. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “old and having lived for many days”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / doublet
זָקֵ֖ן וּשְׂבַ֥ע יָמִֽים
old and,full days
The expressions old and full of days mean similar things. The author is using them together for emphasis. If it would be clearer for your readers, you could express the emphasis with a single phrase. Your language may have a characteristic expression that it would use in such a context. Alternate translation: “at a ripe old age”
42:17 Like Abraham and Isaac, who also died at a ripe old age (Gen 25:8; 35:29), Job lived a long, full life, fulfilling Eliphaz’s promise (Job 5:26), which was based on God’s general promise (Deut 6:2; Ps 91:16).
• At the end of the book, the Greek Old Testament adds a note declaring that Job will rise from the dead at the resurrection. It goes on to provide information about where and when Job and his descendants lived.
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.
