for he gave them into the hand of their sins
Here "hand" represents the power or results of sin. Bildad implies that God killed Job's children because of their sin. AT: "for God caused the consequences of your children's sins to kill them" (See: rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-metonymy and rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-explicit)
But suppose you diligently sought God and presented your request to the Almighty
Bildad is saying 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/translate/figs-hypo)
diligently sought God ... presented your request to the Almighty
These two phrases both refer to Job asking God for help or pleading with God for mercy. (See: rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-doublet)
diligently sought God
"earnestly asked God for help"
