Exegesis
The syntax then shifts to a sequence of singular imperfects—yefallach {יְפַלַּ֣ח | yə-pal-laḥ} ‘he cleaves open,’ velo yachmol {וְלֹ֣א יַחְמ֑וֹל | wə-lōʾ yaḥ-mōl} ‘and he does not show pity,’ and yishpokh {יִשְׁפֹּ֥ךְ | yiš-pōḵ} ‘he pours out’—which tightens focus onto one principal agent directing the assault.
In context — Job 16:13
They encircle me—His archers ; He cleaves my kidneys open and shows no pity; He pours out my gall onto the earth.
