Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
הֲכִימֵ֣י אֱנ֣וֹשׁ יָמֶ֑יךָ אִם־שְׁ֝נוֹתֶ֗יךָ כִּ֣ימֵי גָֽבֶר
?,like,days ʼₑnōshh days,your if years,your like,years man
Job is asking implicitly whether God has the same number of days and years as a human being, not whether God experiences the kind of days and years that people do. You could indicate that in your translation if it would be helpful to your readers. Alternate translation: “Is the number of your days the same as the number of the days that a man has, or is the number of your years the same as the number of days that a person has”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / rquestion
הֲכִימֵ֣י אֱנ֣וֹשׁ יָמֶ֑יךָ אִם־שְׁ֝נוֹתֶ֗יךָ כִּ֣ימֵי גָֽבֶר
?,like,days ʼₑnōshh days,your if years,your like,years man
Job is using the question form for emphasis. If you would not use the question form for that purpose in your language, you could translate these questions as statements or as exclamations, not continuing this sentence into the following two verses. Alternate translation: “Your days are not like the days of a man! No, your years are not like the days of a person!”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy
הֲכִימֵ֣י אֱנ֣וֹשׁ יָמֶ֑יךָ אִם־שְׁ֝נוֹתֶ֗יךָ כִּ֣ימֵי גָֽבֶר
?,like,days ʼₑnōshh days,your if years,your like,years man
Job is using the terms days and years to mean by association the lifetime of a person. If it would be helpful in your language, you could combine the two phrases and state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “Do you have as short a lifetime as people do” or “You do not have as short a lifetime as people do!”
Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / gendernotations
אֱנ֣וֹשׁ & גָֽבֶר
ʼₑnōshh & man
In this verse, the two instances of the word man translate two different words that have essentially the same meaning. Both of these masculine terms have a generic sense that includes both men and women. If it would be helpful to your readers, you could use language in your translation that is clearly inclusive of both men and women. Alternate translation: “a mortal … a human being”
Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / parallelism
כִּ֣ימֵי
like,years
If it would be more natural in your language, you could say “years” instead of days here. This would maintain a parallel between the two parts of this verse without making any significant change in meaning. (The original reading may have been “years”; many translations say that.) Alternate translation: “like the years of”
Note 6 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom
אִם־שְׁ֝נוֹתֶ֗יךָ כִּ֣ימֵי גָֽבֶר
if years,your like,years man
Job is using the word If to introduce a question that anticipates a negative answer. If it would be helpful to your readers, you could indicate this in your translation. Alternate translation: “Your years are not like the days of a man, are they?”
