Exegesis
The verse opens with a fronted compound subject, garei {גָּ֘רֵ֤י | gārê} ‘sojourners’ in construct with beiti {בֵיתִ֣י | bêtî} ‘my house’, joined to ve’amhotai {וְ֭אַמְהֹתַי | wə-ʾāməhōṯay} ‘and my female servants’, which together foreground the very people inside Job’s household who now distance themselves from him.
In context — Job 19:15
The sojourners of my house and my female servants consider me as a stranger; I have become a foreigner in their eyes.
