and=not (Some words not found in UHB: not return again/more to,house_of,his and=not it,will_acknowledge_him again/more place_of,his )
Job is speaking of a person’s place of residence as if it were a living thing that could know that person. The word know in this context means to recognize. The idea is that the place where the person once lived will not have occasion to recognize him again because he will never return to that place. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [no, he will not live in his place of residence again]
OET (OET-RV) That person won’t return to their house again,
⇔ and before long their place won’t even know them again.
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.
Acknowledgements: The Hebrew text, lemmas, and morphology are all thanks to the OSHB and some of the glosses are from Macula Hebrew.
