Yes, but all the other characters being able to understand 'Enochian' is part of the settings of the language. So in that case it is Nazarick that is 'translating' what Victim says (whether this would work for anyone not of Nazarick is unclear, especially since a New Worlder would understand him through their own translation effect).

The translation effect is different as well. The New World translation effect is more seamless, it requires close observation for Ainz to realize that they are not actually speaking Japanese. With Victim, it's obvious he's not speaking normal Japanese (in the Anime it's just echoy rather than backwards or whatever, but it's clearly not normal), but the meaning of the words comes through.
