uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / litotes

וְ֭⁠הִרְבָּה לְ⁠הָשִׁ֣יב אַפּ֑⁠וֹ וְ⁠לֹֽא־יָ֝עִיר כָּל־חֲמָתֽ⁠וֹ

(Some words not found in UHB: and=he compassionate forgave iniquity and=not destroy and,he_increased to,turn_back anger_of,his and=not stir_up all/each/any/every rage_of,his )

The psalmist is emphasizing a positive meaning by using a negative word, not, together with an expression that is the opposite of the intended meaning. If it would be helpful in your language, you could emphasize the positive meaning in a strong way. Alternate translation: [Many times he chose to be patient with his people]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy

לְ⁠הָשִׁ֣יב אַפּ֑⁠וֹ

(Some words not found in UHB: and=he compassionate forgave iniquity and=not destroy and,he_increased to,turn_back anger_of,his and=not stir_up all/each/any/every rage_of,his )

Here, nose represents anger. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use an equivalent expression or state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [he held back his anger] or [he restrained his anger]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

לְ⁠הָשִׁ֣יב אַפּ֑⁠וֹ

(Some words not found in UHB: and=he compassionate forgave iniquity and=not destroy and,he_increased to,turn_back anger_of,his and=not stir_up all/each/any/every rage_of,his )

The psalmist is speaking of God’s anger as if it were something physical that God held back to keep it from going out toward the people. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use an equivalent expression from your language or state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [he restrained his anger] or [he controlled his anger]

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

וְ⁠לֹֽא־יָ֝עִיר כָּל־חֲמָתֽ⁠וֹ

and=not stir_up (Some words not found in UHB: and=he compassionate forgave iniquity and=not destroy and,he_increased to,turn_back anger_of,his and=not stir_up all/each/any/every rage_of,his )

The psalmist is speaking of God’s wrath as if it were something dormant that he could stir up or arouse. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a comparable expression or state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [and did not cause his full wrath to awaken] or [and did not unleash the full extent of his anger]

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.

Acknowledgements: The Hebrew text, lemmas, and morphology are all thanks to the OSHB and some of the glosses are from Macula Hebrew.
