UTNuW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: writing-pronouns

אַ֭תָּה תָּפֵ֣ר יִרְאָ֑ה

you(ms) doing_away fear

For emphasis, Eliphaz is stating the pronoun you, whose meaning is already present in the word translated destroy. 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: “you are completely destroying fear”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

יִרְאָ֑ה

fear

By fear, Eliphaz implicitly means the fear of God, that is, reverent respect for God. You could indicate that in your translation if it would be helpful to your readers. Alternate translation: “the fear of God” or “reverent respect for God”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy

שִׂ֝יחָ֗ה לִ⁠פְנֵי־אֵֽל

meditation to=(the)_face_of/in_front_of/before god

Here the word face represents the presence of a person by association with the way people can see the face of someone who is present. Eliphaz is using the term to describe devotion that someone would offer to God as one person to another. Alternate translation: “personal devotion to God”
