נָתְס֗וּ נְֽתִיבָ֫תִ֥⁠י

break_up path,my

Job is speaking as if there were literally a path that he could take to escape from the attacks of these young men and that they are destroying it so that Job cannot use it. If it would be clearer in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “They prevent me from escaping”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

לְ⁠הַוָּתִ֥⁠י יֹעִ֑ילוּ

to,destruction,my promote

Job is speaking as if calamity were literally an object that these young men could move forward, farther along its route to a destination. He means that in addition to all the bad things that have happened to him, they do further bad things to him. If it would be clearer in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “they add to my sufferings”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom

לֹ֖א עֹזֵ֣ר לָֽ⁠מוֹ

not help they,them

Alternate translation: “they are contemptible people”
