There is a Penguin translation by Jonathan Galassi, which is about as accurate as translations get, though i think it’s meant as a parallel text. It’s very direct and to the point.

Otherwise the good translations are scattered all round the place . Lowell has some, and Edward Steinhardt did a quality collection as well.

sorry i cant be more helpful.
