TSNTyndale Study Notes:

7:19 Won’t you leave me alone (literally How long will you not look away from me): Job sought the opposite of the watchful care that faithful people usually seek (Num 6:25; Pss 27:9; 69:17; 80:3, 7, 19; Lam 1:9).
• to swallow: This is equivalent to “a chance to catch my breath.”


UTNuW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / rquestion

כַּ֭⁠מָּה לֹא־תִשְׁעֶ֣ה מִמֶּ֑⁠נִּי לֹֽא־תַ֝רְפֵּ֗⁠נִי עַד־בִּלְעִ֥⁠י רֻקִּֽ⁠י

as,the_when? not look_away from,me not let_~_alone,me until swallow,I spittle,my

Job is using the question form for emphasis. If you would not use the question form for that purpose in your language, you could translate these questions as statements or as exclamations. Alternate translation: “I wish you would look away from me soon! I wish you would slacken until I swallow my saliva”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

לֹֽא־תַ֝רְפֵּ֗⁠נִי עַד־בִּלְעִ֥⁠י רֻקִּֽ⁠י

not let_~_alone,me until swallow,I spittle,my

The word until has a specific meaning here. Job is not asking God, “Will you only slacken when I swallow my saliva?” He is asking, “Will you please slacken long enough for me to swallow my saliva?” You could say that as an alternate translation if it would be helpful to your readers.

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy

עַד־בִּלְעִ֥⁠י רֻקִּֽ⁠י

until swallow,I spittle,my

Job is using the expression until I swallow my saliva to mean a short time, by association with the way it only takes a short time to swallow once. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “for just a short time”
