uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / simile

סַבּ֤וּ⁠נִי כִ⁠דְבוֹרִ֗ים

they,surrounded_me like,bees

The psalmist is making a comparison between his enemies and bees. The point of this comparison is that just as bees swarm around aggressively when attacking, so his enemies surrounded him aggressively. If it would be helpful in your language, you could make this point explicitly. Alternate translation: [They surrounded me like bees do when they are attacking someone]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

דֹּ֭עֲכוּ כְּ⁠אֵ֣שׁ קוֹצִ֑ים

(Some words not found in UHB: they,surrounded_me like,bees extinguished like,a_fire_of thorns in/on=name_of YHWH that/for/because/then/when I,fended_them_off )

The expression they were extinguished is a passive verbal form. If it would be unnatural to use that form, you could express the idea in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. Alternate translation: [they died away quickly like a fire burning thorns]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / simile

דֹּ֭עֲכוּ כְּ⁠אֵ֣שׁ קוֹצִ֑ים

(Some words not found in UHB: they,surrounded_me like,bees extinguished like,a_fire_of thorns in/on=name_of YHWH that/for/because/then/when I,fended_them_off )

The point of this comparison is that just as a fire of thorns burns out quickly, so the psalmist’s enemies were extinguished quickly. If it would be helpful in your language, you could make this point explicitly. Alternate translation: [they were extinguished as quickly as is a fire among thorns]

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

בְּ⁠שֵׁ֥ם יְ֝הוָ֗ה כִּ֣י אֲמִילַֽ⁠ם

(Some words not found in UHB: they,surrounded_me like,bees extinguished like,a_fire_of thorns in/on=name_of YHWH that/for/because/then/when I,fended_them_off )
