Bildad is about to say what would have happened if Job had correctly spoken to God, but Bildad does not believe that Job really did this. (See: rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-hypo)

diligently sought God ... sought the favor of the Almighty

These two phrases both refer to Job asking God for help or pleading with God for mercy. (See: rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-doublet)
