Exegesis
The next clause stacks kharaq {חָרַ֣ק | ḥāraq} ‘he gnashed’ with the prepositional phrases alay {עָלַ֣י | ʿālay} ‘against me’ and beshinnav {בְּשִׁנָּ֑יו | bəšinnāw} ‘with his teeth’, using vivid bodily imagery to depict rage.
In context — Job 16:9
In his anger he tore me, and he hated me; he gnashed at me with his teeth; my adversary sharpens his eyes at me.
