Exegesis

The conjunction vav and fronted umibsari {וּ֝מִבְּשָׂרִ֗י | ûmibbəśārî} ‘and from my flesh’ highlight the personal scope of suffering before the negative lo {לֹ֣א | lōʾ} ‘not’ combines with the imperfect tishbau {תִשְׂבָּֽעוּ | tiśbəʿû} ‘you are satisfied’ to convey unending voracity. The Hebrew structure of two linked questions preserves the escalating charge: divine comparison followed by an accusation of insatiability.

In contextJob 19:22

Why do you hunt me down as God does, and why are you not satisfied with my flesh?
