Exegesis
A sequence of second-person verbs addressed to God drives the petition forward: first the location is specified (bishol {בִּשְׁא֬וֹל | bišʾôl} ‘in Sheol’), then two near-synonymous Hiphil forms (tatsipneni {תַּצְפִּנֵ֗נִי | taṣpīnēnî} ‘cause me to be hidden’ and tastireni {תַּ֭סְתִּירֵנִי | tastîrēnî} ‘cause me to be concealed’) create poetic parallelism and intensification, portraying Sheol as a temporary shelter from divine distress.
In context — Job 14:13
Would that You would hide me in Sheol , that You would conceal me until Your anger turns back, that You would set for me a statute, and that You would remember me.
