Exegesis
The final line shifts from individual acts to coordinated opposition: yachad {יַ֝֗חַד | yaḥad} ‘together’ front-loads the collective force, alai {עָלַ֥י | ʿālay} reiterates the target for emphasis, and the Hitpael imperfect yitmallaun {יִתְמַלָּאֽוּן | yitmallāʾûn} ‘they gather themselves’ portrays an ongoing, self-mustering movement. The formal rendering preserves the step-by-step sequence; the dynamic rendering expresses the mouth-gaping idiom as jeering while keeping the escalation from ridicule to physical abuse to unified hostility.
In context — Job 16:10
They have gaped at me with their mouths; with reproach they have struck my cheeks; together against me they assemble .
