UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy

He allowed his strength to be captured and gave his glory into the enemy’s hand

(Some words not found in UHB: and=he/it_gave to_the,captivity strength,his and,splendor,his in/on/at/with,hand foe )

Asaph speaks of God’s strength and glory as if they were physical objects that people could capture and hold. The words “strength” and “glory” are probably mentonyms for the ark of the covenant. The word “hand” is a metonym for the enemy’s power. If your language does not use the passive form in this way, you can state this in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. Alternate translation: “He allowed his enemies to capture the glorious ark of his covenant; he simply gave it to them so they could do whatever they wanted with it” (See also: figs-activepassive)
