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]

וַתֹּ֥פַע כְּמוֹ־אֹֽפֶל
and,light like darkness
If you decided to translate verses 2–22 as a second-level direct quotation, indicate the end of that quotation here at the end of this sentence with a closing second-level quotation mark or whatever other punctuation or convention your language uses to indicate the end of a second-level quotation.
10:20-22 Earlier, Job had painted a fairly pleasant picture of Sheol (3:13-19); now he describes it as a land of darkness and utter gloom (see also 7:9-10; 14:7-22).
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.
Acknowledgements: The Hebrew text, lemmas, and morphology are all thanks to the OSHB and some of the glosses are from Macula Hebrew.
