return (Some words not found in UHB: return my_self_of,my to,your(pl)_resting_of,place(s) that/for/because/then/when YHWH dealt_bountifully towards,you )

The psalmist is speaking to himself in the second person as your and you. If it would be helpful in your language, you could translate this in first person as modeled in the UST.

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy

שׁוּבִ֣י נַ֭פְשִׁ⁠י לִ⁠מְנוּחָ֑יְ⁠כִי

return (Some words not found in UHB: return my_self_of,my to,your(pl)_resting_of,place(s) that/for/because/then/when YHWH dealt_bountifully towards,you )

The psalmist is using the term soul to mean the entire person from the perspective of his spiritual/emotional existence. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use an equivalent expression or plain language. Alternate translation: [I must return myself to calmness]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

שׁוּבִ֣י & לִ⁠מְנוּחָ֑יְ⁠כִי

return & to,your(pl)_resting_of,place(s)

By rest, the psalmist means “a state of restfulness.” You could say that explicitly if that would be helpful to your readers. Alternate translation: [Return to your state of restfulness]

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

כִּֽי־יְ֝הוָ֗ה גָּמַ֥ל עָלָֽיְ⁠כִי

(Some words not found in UHB: return my_self_of,my to,your(pl)_resting_of,place(s) that/for/because/then/when YHWH dealt_bountifully towards,you )

The psalmist is speaking of Yahweh’s good deeds as if they were repaid like a debt or wages. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [for Yahweh has done good things for you] or [for Yahweh has done good things for me]
