Note 1 topic: writing-pronouns
וַתֹּ֥פַע כְּמוֹ־אֹֽפֶל
and,light like darkness
The pronoun it could refer to: (1) whatever faint light there might be in the abode of the dead. Alternate translation: “and where the light shines like gloom” or “and where the only light is very faint” (2) the land that Job has been describing, that is, the abode of the dead itself. In order to draw a contrast with the darkness in the abode of the dead, Job would be speaking as if a place that is well-lit shines. It may be helpful to begin a new sentence here. Alternate translation: “There is no light in that land”
