Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns
אִמְרֵי־יֹ֑שֶׁר
words honest
If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea of uprightness, you could express the same idea in another way. Alternate translation: “upright words”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / rquestion
וּמַה־ יּוֹכִ֖יחַ הוֹכֵ֣חַ מִכֶּֽם
and,what prove reproof from,your_all's
Job is using the question form for emphasis. If you would not use the question form for that purpose in your language, you could translate this as a statement or as an exclamation. Alternate translation: “But correcting from you does not correct anything!”
Note 3 topic: writing-poetry
וּמַה־ יּוֹכִ֖יחַ הוֹכֵ֣חַ מִכֶּֽם
and,what prove reproof from,your_all's
For emphasis, Job is using a construction in which a subject and its verb come from the same root. You may be able to use the same construction in your language to express the meaning here. Alternatively, your language may have another way of showing the emphasis. Alternate translation: “But what does your attempted correction really accomplish?” or “Your attempted correction really accomplishes nothing!”
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 Hebrew or Greek words that they’re translated from.
