Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / parallelism
לֹא־נָס֣וֹג אָח֣וֹר לִבֵּ֑נוּ וַתֵּ֥ט אֲשֻׁרֵ֗ינוּ מִנִּ֥י אָרְחֶֽךָ
(Some words not found in UHB: all/each/any/every this(f) happened,us and=not forgotten,you and=not false in/on/at/with,covenant,your )
These two phrases mean basically the same thing. Translate them according to the decisions your team has made regarding translating parallelism in Hebrew poetry. See the book introduction for more information. Alternate translation: “Our heart has not turned back, likewise our steps bent from your ways” or “Our actions have not departed from you”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom
נָס֣וֹג אָח֣וֹר לִבֵּ֑נוּ
(Some words not found in UHB: all/each/any/every this(f) happened,us and=not forgotten,you and=not false in/on/at/with,covenant,your )
Here, turn back is an idiom that means to stop obeying Yahweh. If this phrase does not have that meaning in your language, use an idiom from your language that does have this meaning or state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “Our heart has not stopped obeying you”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy
וַתֵּ֥ט אֲשֻׁרֵ֗ינוּ מִנִּ֥י אָרְחֶֽךָ
(Some words not found in UHB: all/each/any/every this(f) happened,us and=not forgotten,you and=not false in/on/at/with,covenant,your )
The author is using the phrase our steps* to refer a person's actions during their life. They are using your way to refer to Yahweh's commandments as though they were a path that someone might walk on. If it would be helpful to your readers, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “we have acted according to your commandments”
Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor
וַתֵּ֥ט אֲשֻׁרֵ֗ינוּ מִנִּ֥י אָרְחֶֽךָ
(Some words not found in UHB: all/each/any/every this(f) happened,us and=not forgotten,you and=not false in/on/at/with,covenant,your )
The author is using the phrase bent to mean that their steps have turned towards a different direction, just as a piece of metal is bent in a different direction. If it would be helpful to your readers, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “our steps have turned in a different direction from your ways, as a person bends something”
Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / ellipsis
וַתֵּ֥ט אֲשֻׁרֵ֗ינוּ מִנִּ֥י אָרְחֶֽךָ
(Some words not found in UHB: all/each/any/every this(f) happened,us and=not forgotten,you and=not false in/on/at/with,covenant,your )
The author is leaving out some of the words that in many languages a sentence would need in order to be complete. You could supply these words from earlier in the sentence if it would be clearer in your language. Alternate translation: “our steps have not bent from your way”
