The word Mazzaroth seems to be the name of another constellation of stars, but it is no longer clear to which constellation this name applies. You could translate this as a general reference. Alternate translation: “Will you bring out the constellations in their time” or “Will you make each of the constellations appear in the sky at the right time”

See how you translated the name Bear in 9:. The term sons seems to apply to the stars that trail off into the sky from the main part of this constellation. Alternate translation: “Or will you make the Big Dipper and its handle appear in the right place”

and,bear on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in her/its=sons/descendants guide,them
Yahweh is speaking of the constellation that this culture called the Bear as if it were a living thing that Job could have guided. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “Or will you position the Big Dipper and its handle properly in the sky”
Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / gendernotations
בָּנֶ֥יהָ
her/its=sons/descendants
Here the masculine term sons has a generic sense that would include both male and female young bears. Some languages may have a general term for the offspring of bears that would convey this sense. Other languages may use both the masculine and feminine forms of such a term. Alternate translation: “its cubs”
