There are a handful of ways to localize text in ServiceNow to other languages. One way is to create alternate language labels for tables and fields using the Labels related list on the Dictionary Entry form. Perhaps the closest equivalent to the SharePoint Term Store would be the Messages [sys_ui_message] table. You can provide translations for messages in various languages, then when you call gs.getMessage('your message here') the logged in user will get the appropriate message for their preferred language.

This documentation page provides more information and examples: ServiceNow Product Documentation › Custom Translations. Hope it helps!
