and=it_glowed/burned also/though ʼElīhū son_of Barachel the,Buzite of,family Rām in/on/at/with,Job it_glowed/burned anger,he

See how you translated the word nose in 9:5. The narrator is speaking as if Elihu’s nose or anger could literally have burned. He means that Elihu became very angry. If it would be clearer in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “Then Elihu son of Barakel the Buzite, of the family of Ram, became very angry. He became very angry against Job”

Note 2 topic: writing-newevent

וַ⁠יִּ֤חַר

and=it_glowed/burned

The narrator is using the word translated Then to introduce a new event in the story. Use a word, phrase, or other method in your language that is natural for introducing a new event.

Note 3 topic: writing-participants

אֱלִיה֣וּא בֶן־בַּרַכְאֵ֣ל הַ⁠בּוּזִי֮ מִ⁠מִּשְׁפַּ֪חַ֫ת רָ֥ם

ʼElīhū son_of Barachel the,Buzite of,family Rām

The author is introducing Elihu as a new participant in the story by naming his father, his people group, and his clan. If your language has its own way of introducing new participants, you can use it here in your translation. You may wish to indicate in your translation, as the UST does, that Elihu had been listening as Job spoke with his three friends.

ʼElīhū & Barachel & (Some words not found in UHB: and=it_glowed/burned also/though ʼElīhū son_of Barachel the,Buzite of,family Rām in/on/at/with,Job it_glowed/burned anger,he on/upon justified,he self_of,him rather_than,God )

The words Elihu, Barakel, and Ram are the names of men. Buzite is the name of the people group to which Elihu belonged. The term identifies him as one of the descendants of a man named Buz.
