HELPPPPP I’m trapped out of my device. I tried to change the WiFi and I accidentally deleted it and now it won’t let me set it up as it says it is owned by another user and now it is not there on the home app to reset because I deleted it

That's actually working as intended:
Error message: This device is already linked to a user - Google Nest Help
To resolve, you'll need to use the physical factory reset process. On the back of Nest Hub Max, press and hold both volume buttons together for about 10 seconds. Your Nest Hub Max will let you know that it's resetting. Once reset, you'll be able to set it up again with your new Wifi network in the Google Home app.
