UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: translate-symaction

תִּשָּׂ֣א פָנֶ֣י⁠ךָ מִ⁠מּ֑וּם

lift_up face,your without,blemish

Zophar is suggesting that Job would be able to lift his face without being concerned that any blemish would show as symbolic action to indicate that he was not ashamed of anything. Job said in 10:15 that he could not do this, and so Zophar is answering Job with his own words. To help your readers appreciate what Zophar is doing, you could translate this expression similarly to the way you translated the comparable expression in 10:15. Alternate translation: “you will no longer need to look down in shame”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

מִ⁠מּ֑וּם

without,blemish

Zophar is speaking as if Job might literally have a blemish on his face and that it would go away if Job prayed to God. The blemish actually represents a cause for shame. If it would be clearer in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “without feeling any shame”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

וְ⁠הָיִ֥יתָ מֻ֝צָ֗ק

and,be firmly_established

If your language does not use this passive form, you could express the idea in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. If you need to say who will do the action, the context suggests that it will be God. Alternate translation: “and God will establish you”

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

וְ⁠לֹ֣א תִירָֽא

and=not fear

Zophar seems to mean implicitly that Job will not have to fear any further punishment from God. If it would be helpful to your readers, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “and you will not be afraid that God will punish you anymore”
