Exegesis
The first clause contrasts yādaʿtā {יָּדַעְתָּ | yādaʿtā} ‘have you known’ with nēḏaʿ {נֵדָע | nēḏaʿ} ‘we know’, linked by wə-lōʾ {וְלֹא | wə-lōʾ} ‘and not’ to underscore the dispute.
In context — Job 15:9
What have you known that we do not know? What do you understand that is not with us ?
