Exegesis
The predicate-participle hatulim {הֲתֻלִים | hă-ṯu-lîm} ‘the mockers’ is framed with interrogative heh, presenting their presence as undeniable, while immadi {עִמָּדִי | ʿim-mā-dî} ‘with me’ heightens the immediacy of Job’s distress: the derision is not distant but adjacent.
In context — Job 17:2
Are there not mockers with me, and does not my eye lodge in their provocations , ?
