OET (OET-RV) You clothed me with flesh and skin,
⇔ ≈and you knit me together with bones and tendons inside.

Ordinarily one builds the inside of something before its outside, so you might find it more natural to put the information about the bones and tendons before the information about the skin and flesh. Alternate translation: “You knit me together with bones and tendons and then you clothed me with skin and flesh”

Job is speaking as if God had literally clothed him with skin and flesh. If it would be clearer in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “You have covered my body with skin and flesh”

Job is speaking as if God had literally knit him together with bones and tendons. If it would be clearer in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “and you have given me a supportive skeletal system of bones and tendons”
10:8-11 A succession of images describes God’s role in creating Job.
• You formed me with your hands . . . made me from dust: This was how a potter made a vessel (Isa 45:9; Jer 18:1-12). Although the potter has incontestable sovereignty over the clay (Isa 45:9; Jer 18:5-12; Rom 9:20-25), Job was questioning God.
• back to dust: This common motif in Job represents the temporary nature of life (Job 4:19; 7:9-10, 21; 14:1-2, 10; see Gen 3:19).
• You guided my conception and formed me in the womb: The Hebrew terminology (literally You poured me out like milk and curdled me like cheese) evokes graphic images of a newborn baby still covered with the creamy substance called vernix.
OET (OET-RV) You clothed me with flesh and skin,
⇔ ≈and you knit me together with bones and tendons inside.
Note: The OET-RV is still only a first draft, and so far only a few words have been (mostly automatically) matched to the Hebrew or Greek words that they’re translated from.
