Commentaries:
Jamieson, Fausset, and Brown
Image from a wild beast. So God is represented (Job 10:16).
who hateth me—rather, "and pursues me hard." Job would not ascribe "hatred" to God (Psalms 50:22).
mine enemy—rather, "he sharpens, etc., as an enemy" (Psalms 7:12). Darts wrathful glances at me, like a foe (Job 13:24).
