Exegesis
The pairing of lo {לא | lōʾ} ‘not’ and lo {ל֣וֹ | lō} ‘to him’ frames the direction of Job’s resolve articulated by the Piel imperfect ayachel {אֲיַחֵל | ʾăyaḥēl} ‘I will hope’.
In context — Job 13:15
Behold, though He slay me, yet I will hope in Him; surely I will argue my ways to His face.
