UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / quotesinquotes

תְּה֣וֹם אָ֭מַר לֹ֣א בִ⁠י־הִ֑יא וְ⁠יָ֥ם אָ֝מַ֗ר אֵ֣ין עִמָּדִֽ⁠י

deep he/it_had_said not in/on/at/with,me she/it and,sea he/it_had_said not with=me

If it would be clearer in your language, you could translate this so that there is not a quotation within a quotation. Alternate translation: “The deep says that wisdom is not in it, and the sea says that it is not with it”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / personification

תְּה֣וֹם אָ֭מַר לֹ֣א בִ⁠י־הִ֑יא וְ⁠יָ֥ם אָ֝מַ֗ר אֵ֣ין עִמָּדִֽ⁠י

deep he/it_had_said not in/on/at/with,me she/it and,sea he/it_had_said not with=me

Job is speaking of the deep (that is, the depths of the ocean) and of the sea (probably meaning its broad expanse) as if they were living things that could speak. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “If the deep could speak, it would say, ‘Wisdom is not in me,’ and if the sea could speak, it would say, ‘It is not with me.’”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / parallelism

תְּה֣וֹם אָ֭מַר לֹ֣א בִ⁠י־הִ֑יא וְ⁠יָ֥ם אָ֝מַ֗ר אֵ֣ין עִמָּדִֽ⁠י

deep he/it_had_said not in/on/at/with,me she/it and,sea he/it_had_said not with=me

These two phrases mean similar things. Job is using repetition to emphasize the idea that the phrases express. If it would be helpful to your readers, you could combine them. Alternate translation: “The deep, wide ocean says, ‘It is not in me’”
