Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
אַךְ־שְׁ֭תַּיִם
only two
At this point in his speech, Job stops addressing his three friends and starts addressing God directly. If it would be helpful to your readers, you could indicate this explicitly in your translation. Alternate translation: “God, only two things do not do to me”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / yousingular
אַל־תַּ֣עַשׂ & מִ֝פָּנֶ֗יךָ
not grant & from,face,your
As the General Notes to this chapter discuss, the word your and the implied “you” in the imperative do are singular here because Job is starting to address God directly. He continues to speak to God for the rest of this chapter and in all of chapter 14. So use singular forms of second-person pronouns and imperatives in your translation from here to the end of chapter 14 if your language marks that distinction.
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy
מִ֝פָּנֶ֗יךָ
from,face,your
Here the word face represents the presence of a person by association with the way people can see the face of someone who is present. Alternate translation: “from you presence”
13:20-21 Job had contemplated finding an arbiter to remove God’s heavy hand (9:33-34). Eliphaz had urged Job to accept God’s chastening (5:17).
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.
