Indica mihi cur me ita judices, id est flagellas, utrum ad securitatem vel pro qua culpa specialiter; quia etsi justus, habet tamen aliqua mala: et ideo, petit ut Deus se sibi indicet, ut quod Deus in eo punit, ipse quoque flendo puniat.

אֹמַ֣ר אֶל־אֱ֭לוֹהַּ אַל־תַּרְשִׁיעֵ֑נִי הֽ֝וֹדִיעֵ֗נִי עַ֣ל מַה־תְּרִיבֵֽנִי
say to/towards god not condemn,me know,me on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in what? contend,me
As the General Notes to this chapter discuss, this is the beginning of a long quotation within a quotation. Job is telling his friends what he would like to tell God. If it would be clearer in your language, you could translate this and the rest of the chapter so that there is not a quotation within a quotation. Alternate translation: “I will tell God not to condemn me but to cause me to know for what he is accusing me”

אֹמַ֣ר אֶל־אֱ֭לוֹהַּ אַל־תַּרְשִׁיעֵ֑נִי הֽ֝וֹדִיעֵ֗נִי עַ֣ל מַה־תְּרִיבֵֽנִי
say to/towards god not condemn,me know,me on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in what? contend,me
If you decide to translate what Job says he would tell God as a direct quotation, you could indicate the start of the quotation with an opening second-level quotation mark or with some other punctuation or convention that your language uses to indicate the start of a second-level quotation.
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
אַל־תַּרְשִׁיעֵ֑נִי הֽ֝וֹדִיעֵ֗נִי
not condemn,me know,me
Job means implicitly that he does not want God to condemn him without letting him know why he is condemning him. You could indicate that in your translation if it would be helpful to your readers. Alternate translation: “Do not condemn me without causing me to know”
