Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive
וְלֹ֨א נִמְצָ֜א נָשִׁ֥ים
and=not he/it_was_found women/wives
If your language does not use this passive form, you could express the idea in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. Alternate translation: “And there were no other women”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
וַיִּתֵּ֨ן לָהֶ֧ם אֲבִיהֶ֛ם נַחֲלָ֖ה בְּת֥וֹךְ אֲחֵיהֶֽם
and=he/it_gave to/for=them father,their inheritance in_the=middle brothers,their
It was not customary in this culture for fathers to give their daughters an inheritance. The author may mention this because it shows the special love and regard that Job had for his daughters. You could indicate that in your translation if it would be helpful to your readers. Alternate translation: “And their father loved them so much and regarded them so highly that he gave them an inheritance in the midst of their brothers”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom
בְּת֥וֹךְ אֲחֵיהֶֽם
in_the=middle brothers,their
This expression could mean: (1) that Job gave his daughters an inheritance just as he did for his sons. Alternate translation: “just as he did for their brothers” (2) that Job gave his daughters as an inheritance land that was located in the same area as land that he gave to his sons as their inheritance. Alternate translation: “of land that adjoined land that he left to his sons”
42:15 their father put them into his will: Daughters normally inherited only when there were no male heirs (Num 27; 36). Perhaps Job’s unusual action expressed his superabundant prosperity; only a wealthy man could afford to pass some of his wealth to the families into which his daughters would marry.
