Note 1 topic: writing-pronouns
וַאֲנִ֣י אַחֲרִ֑ישׁ
and,I silent
For emphasis, Job is stating the pronoun I, whose meaning is already present in the verb translated will be silent. If your language can state implied pronouns explicitly for emphasis, you may want to use that construction here in your translation. Other languages may have other ways of bringing out this emphasis. Alternate translation: “I will certainly be silent”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor
וּמַה־ שָּׁ֝גִ֗יתִי
and,how gone_astray
Job is speaking as if he could have literally strayed off the right path. He means that he could have done something wrong. If it would be clearer in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “and what I have done wrong”
6:14-27 Job and his friends might have been bound by a covenant of loyalty and faithfulness (Hebrew khesed; see Gen 21:23; Exod 15:13; 1 Chr 16:34) that made them like brothers (Job 6:14-15), protectors (6:21-23), and trusted friends (6:27). If this was the case, Job was accusing his friends of violating their covenant with him.
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.
