Note 1 topic: grammar-connect-words-phrases
יַ֭הֲרוֹס וְלֹ֣א יִבָּנֶ֑ה יִסְגֹּ֥ר עַל־אִ֝֗ישׁ וְלֹ֣א יִפָּתֵֽחַ
tears_down and=not rebuilt imprisons on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in (a)_man and=not released
In both of these instances, Job is using the word and to introduce what happens under the condition he is describing. If it would be helpful to your readers, you could indicate this in your translation. Alternate translation: “if he breaks down, then it is not rebuilt; if he closes upon a man, then it is not opened”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive
וְלֹ֣א יִבָּנֶ֑ה & וְלֹ֣א יִפָּתֵֽחַ
and=not rebuilt & and=not released
If your language does not use these passive forms, you could express the ideas in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. Alternate translation: “and no one rebuilds … and no one opens”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom
יִסְגֹּ֥ר עַל־אִ֝֗ישׁ וְלֹ֣א יִפָּתֵֽחַ
imprisons on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in (a)_man and=not released
In this context, the expressions closes upon and opened refer to imprisonment and release. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “he imprisons a man, and that man is not released” or “if he imprisons a man, then no one releases that man”
Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / gendernotations
אִ֝֗ישׁ
(a)_man
Here the masculine term man has a generic sense that includes both men and women. If it would be helpful to your readers, you could use language in your translation that is clearly inclusive of both men and women. Alternate translation: “a man or woman” or “a person”

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.
