UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: grammar-connect-words-phrases

תִּ֭קְרָא וְ⁠אָנֹכִ֣י אֶֽעֱנֶ֑⁠ךָּ לְֽ⁠מַעֲשֵׂ֖ה יָדֶ֣י⁠ךָ תִכְסֹֽף

call and,I answer,you for,work hands,your long

In this verse, Job is describing what would happen under the condition he described in the previous verse. If it would be helpful to your readers, to indicate this you could add a connecting word at the start of this verse. You could also use the conditional tense rather than the future tense if that would be more natural in your language. Alternate translation: “Then you would call, and I would answer you. You would desire the work of your hands”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

תִּ֭קְרָא וְ⁠אָנֹכִ֣י אֶֽעֱנֶ֑⁠ךָּ

call and,I answer,you

Here Job is using words that are very similar to the ones that he used in 13:22 to challenge God to argue his case with him. But now he means that he and God would converse in a friendly way. To help your readers appreciate this use of language, it would be helpful to translate the terms here the same way you translated them in 13:22.

Note 3 topic: writing-pronouns

וְ⁠אָנֹכִ֣י אֶֽעֱנֶ֑⁠ךָּ

and,I answer,you

For emphasis, Job is stating the pronoun I, whose meaning is already present in the word translated answer. If your language can state implied pronouns explicitly for emphasis, you may want to use that construction here in your translation. Other languages may have other ways of bringing out this emphasis. Alternate translation: “and I would gladly answer you”

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / synecdoche

לְֽ⁠מַעֲשֵׂ֖ה יָדֶ֣י⁠ךָ

for,work hands,your

Job is using one part of God, his hands, to mean all of him in the act of creating Job. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “the person whom you created”
