Exegesis
Two parallel Piel imperfect verbs—togyun {תּוֹגְי֣וּן | tôgyûn} ‘you will torment’ and u-tedakkeunani {וּֽתְדַכּאוּנַ֥נִי | ûṯəḏakkəʾûnannî} ‘and you will crush me’—portray repeated, intensified mistreatment by a plural “you,” likely the speaker’s accusers.
Root and etymology

In context — Job 19:2
How long will you torment my soul and crush me with words?
