Exegesis
The simile introduced by kemelekh {כְּמֶ֤לֶךְ | kəmélekh} ‘like a king’ portrays the assault as organized and unstoppable, and atid {עָתִ֬יד | ʿātîd} ‘ready’ with lakkidor {לַכִּידֽוֹר | lakkîdôr} ‘for attack’ frames the fear as a military threat already poised to strike. English rendering keeps the two balanced clauses and carries the king-comparison at the end to preserve the verse’s climactic imagery.
In context — Job 15:24
Distress and anguish terrify him; it overpowers him like a king ready for attack .
