God, listen carefully
Job begins directing his speech directly to God.
listen carefully to my speech; let my declaration come to your ears
These two lines mean basically the same thing and intensify Job's request for God to listen to him. (See: rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-parallelism)
let my declaration come to your ears
The abstract noun "declaration" can be expressed with the verb "declare." The ears represent listening. AT: "listen to my declaration" or "listen to what I declare" (See: rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-abstractnouns and rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-metonymy)
