For it increaseth. Thou huntest me as a fierce lion: and again thou shewest thyself marvellous upon me.
For it increaseth, х yig'eh (H1342)] - literally, (my affliction, Job 10:15) groweth up, as in Job 8:11. I prefer this to the translation, (if) I lift up (my head) thou wouldest hunt me, etc. (Umbreit).
And again - as if a lion should not kill his prey at once, but come back and torture it again. 'And afresh thou showest thyself marvelous (i:e., thou showest thy marvelous power) upon me' - i:e., in oppressing me. So the Lord is compared to a lion (Isaiah 31:4; Lamentations 3:10).
