Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / rquestion

לָ⁠מָ֣ה אֱ֭לֹהִים זָנַ֣חְתָּ לָ⁠נֶ֑צַח יֶעְשַׁ֥ן אַ֝פְּ⁠ךָ֗ בְּ⁠צֹ֣אן מַרְעִיתֶֽ⁠ךָ

to/for,why? ʼElohīm rejected to,forever smoke anger_of,your in/on/at/with,sheep_of pasture_of,your

The author is not asking for information, but is using the question form to express his strong feelings and to express that he does not fully understand why God is delaying acting on behalf of his covenant people the Israelites. If you would not use a rhetorical question for this purpose in your language, you could translate these words as a statement or an exclamation and communicate the emphasis in another way as modeled by the UST.

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / hyperbole

לָ⁠מָ֣ה אֱ֭לֹהִים זָנַ֣חְתָּ לָ⁠נֶ֑צַח

to/for,why? ʼElohīm rejected to,forever

The author says forever here as an overstatement for emphasis. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a different way to express the emphasis. Alternate translation: “God, why have you rejected us for so long?” or “God, why have you rejected us for such a long time?”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

יֶעְשַׁ֥ן אַ֝פְּ⁠ךָ֗ בְּ⁠צֹ֣אן מַרְעִיתֶֽ⁠ךָ

smoke anger_of,your in/on/at/with,sheep_of pasture_of,your

The author is speaking as if God’s nose or anger could literally smoke. He means that God is very angry. If it would be clearer in your language, you could state the meaning plainly or use an equivalent expression from your language. Alternate translation: “Why are you angry with the sheep of your pasture?” or “Why do you act with anger against the sheep of your pasture?”

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

בְּ⁠צֹ֣אן מַרְעִיתֶֽ⁠ךָ

in/on/at/with,sheep_of pasture_of,your

The author speaks of God as if he were a shepherd and he speaks about the people of Israel as if they were sheep that belong to God (live in his pasture). If it would help your readers, you could express the meaning using plain language or you could use a simile as modeled by the UST. Alternate translation: “your people” or “your very own people”
