UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

(Occurrence 0) Hope of Israel

(Some words not found in UHB: hope Yisrael savior,its in/on/at/with,time distress to/for=what are like,stranger on_the=earth and,like,traveler spreads_out to,spend_the_night )

This is another name for Yahweh. Alternate translation: “You are the hope of Israel”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / parallelism

(Occurrence 0) why will you be like a stranger in the land, like a foreign wanderer who stretches out and spends just one night?

(Some words not found in UHB: hope Yisrael savior,its in/on/at/with,time distress to/for=what are like,stranger on_the=earth and,like,traveler spreads_out to,spend_the_night )

The people are asking if Yahweh is unconcerned with his people and unable to help them. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express this question as a statement. Alternate translation: “you should not be like a stranger in the land, like a foreign wanderer who stretches out and spends just one night.”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / simile

(Occurrence 0) why will you be like a stranger in the land, like a foreign wanderer … just one night

(Some words not found in UHB: hope Yisrael savior,its in/on/at/with,time distress to/for=what are like,stranger on_the=earth and,like,traveler spreads_out to,spend_the_night )

This question speaks of the possibility of Yahweh being unconcerned with helping his people as if he were a stranger just travelling though a place unconcerned with those living there.
