uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / 123person

שְׂחֹ֤ק לְ⁠רֵעֵ֨⁠הוּ ׀ אֶֽהְיֶ֗ה קֹרֵ֣א לֶ֭⁠אֱלוֹהַּ וַֽ⁠יַּעֲנֵ֑⁠הוּ

laughingstock to,friends,him am called on,God and,answered,him

Job is actually using the pronouns him and his to refer to himself. If it would be clearer in your language, you could translate this using first-person pronouns. Alternate translation: “Even though God used to answer me when I called on him, now I have become laughter to my neighbor”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy

שְׂחֹ֤ק

laughingstock

Job is using the term laughter by association to mean an object of laughter, that is, of derision. Your language may have an expression that you could use in your translation to convey this meaning. Alternate translation: “a laughingstock”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / ellipsis

שְׂ֝ח֗וֹק צַדִּ֥יק תָּמִֽים

laughingstock law-abiding/just entire/complete/moral

Job is leaving out some of the words that in many languages a sentence would need in order to be complete. You can supply these words from the context if that would be clearer in your language. It may be helpful to begin a new sentence here. Alternate translation: “I, a just and blameless man, have become a laughingstock!”
