UTNuW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy

וַ⁠יְהִ֣י לְ֭⁠אֵבֶל כִּנֹּרִ֑⁠י וְ֝⁠עֻגָבִ֗⁠י לְ⁠ק֣וֹל בֹּכִֽים

and=he/it_was to,mourning lyre,my and,flute,my to=sound/voice weep

Job is using musical instruments, the harp and the flute, to represent happiness, by association with the way that people play music when they are happy. He is using mourning and the sound of weeping to represent sorrow, since people mourn and weep when they are sad. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “So while I used to be joyful, now I am very sorrowful”
