UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / personification

יִנָּתֵ֣ק & וְ֝⁠תַצְעִדֵ֗⁠הוּ

torn & and,brought,him

If terror is indeed the agent that Bildad says pulls the wicked person from his tent, then Bildad is speaking of terror as if it were a living thing that could do this. He actually means that the disasters that cause a wicked person to feel terror also deprive him of safety and security. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [The disasters that cause him to feel terror take him away … and they march him]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

יִנָּתֵ֣ק

torn

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 does the action, from the context it appears that this may be terror itself, since terror seems to be personified in the second part of the verse. Alternate translation: [Terror pulls him]

Note 3 topic: writing-pronouns

וְ֝⁠תַצְעִדֵ֗⁠הוּ לְ⁠מֶ֣לֶךְ בַּלָּהֽוֹת

and,brought,him to,king_of terrors

The pronoun one probably refers to terror. The pronoun is feminine, as is the word “terror,” and Hebrew speakers sometimes used feminine pronouns to represent feminine subjects they had not yet named but which they had in mind. It may be helpful to clarify this for your readers. Alternate translation: [and terror marches him to its king]

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / personification

וְ֝⁠תַצְעִדֵ֗⁠הוּ לְ⁠מֶ֣לֶךְ בַּלָּהֽוֹת

and,brought,him to,king_of terrors

If the pronoun one does refer to terror, then Bildad is speaking of terror as if it were a living thing, a soldier, who could march a captured enemy to his king as a prisoner. Once again Bildad would be using terror to mean the disasters that cause a wicked person to feel terror. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [and the disasters that cause him to feel terror bring him to the king of terrors]

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom

וְ֝⁠תַצְעִדֵ֗⁠הוּ לְ⁠מֶ֣לֶךְ בַּלָּהֽוֹת

and,brought,him to,king_of terrors

Like the expression “the firstborn of death” in the previous verse, the expression the king of terrors here is a superlative. It means the worst terror there is, specifically, death. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [and the disasters that cause him to feel terror ultimately cause him to die]
