The OET segments on this page are still very early looks into the unfinished texts of the Open English Translation of the Bible. Please double-check these texts in advance before using in public.

MSG ^(5-14)“All the buried dead are in torment,
  and all who’ve been drowned in the deep, deep sea.
Hell is ripped open before God,
  graveyards dug up and exposed.
He spreads the skies over unformed space,
  hangs the earth out in empty space.
He pours water into cumulus cloud-bags
  and the bags don’t burst.
He makes the moon wax and wane,
  putting it through its phases.
He draws the horizon out over the ocean,
  sets a boundary between light and darkness.
Thunder crashes and rumbles in the skies.
  Listen! It’s God raising his voice!
By his power he stills sea storms,
  by his wisdom he tames sea monsters.
With one breath he clears the sky,
  with one finger he crushes the sea serpent.
And this is only the beginning,
  a mere whisper of his rule.
  Whatever would we do if he really raised his voice!”

UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

הָ⁠רְפָאִ֥ים יְחוֹלָ֑לוּ

the,dead tremble

As the General Notes to this chapter discuss, at this point in this speech, Job begins a description of the greatness of God. You could indicate that in your translation if it would be helpful to your readers. Alternate translation: “But as for the greatness of God, the Raphaites tremble”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

מִ⁠תַּ֥חַת מַ֝֗יִם וְ⁠שֹׁכְנֵי⁠הֶֽם

from=under waters and,inhabitants,their

Job implicitly means that the spirits of dead people tremble from their abode in Sheol, which he names specifically in the next verse but which he identifies by its location in this verse. You could indicate that in your translation if it would be helpful to your readers. Alternate translation: “from their abode deep below the sea, deep below the creatures that live in the sea”
