Exegesis
The second colon advances the image with vayyassa {וַיַּסַּ֥ע | way·yas·saʿ} ‘and He uproots,’ shifting from breaking down to removal, and it places tiqvati {תִּקְוָתִֽי׃ | tiq·wā·tî} ‘my hope’ as the affected object, clarifying that the loss is inward and future-oriented.
In context — Job 19:10
He breaks me down on every side, and I am gone; and He uproots my hope like a tree.
