Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / personification
וַתִּ֥בֶן צֹ֛ר מָצ֖וֹר לָ֑הּ
and,it_built Tsor/(Tyre) fortress to/for=her/it
Zechariah is speaking of the city Tyre as if it were a living woman who built herself a stronghold. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [And the people of Tyre have built themselves a stronghold]
Note 2 topic: writing-pronouns
וַתִּ֥בֶן צֹ֛ר מָצ֖וֹר לָ֑הּ
(Some words not found in UHB: and,it_built Tsor/(Tyre) fortress to/for=her/it and,it_heaped_up silver like,dust and,gold like_[the],mud_of streets )
The word herself indicates that the object of the verb is the same as the subject of the verb. Use a way that is natural in your language to indicate that the same person fills two roles in the sentence. Alternate translation: [And Tyre has built a stronghold for her own benefit]
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / simile
וַתִּצְבָּר־כֶּ֨סֶף֙ כֶּֽעָפָ֔ר וְחָר֖וּץ כְּטִ֥יט חוּצֽוֹת
and,it_heaped_up silver like,dust and,gold like_[the],mud_of streets
The point of this comparison is that just as dust and the mud of the streets are extremely common and plentiful, so the silver and refined gold that Tyre accumulated were extremely abundant. If it would be helpful in your language, you could make this point explicitly. Alternate translation: [heaped up silver and refined gold in very great abundance]
