The opposition between them is imagined due to adjuncts, not real. Maya is the adjunct for Ishvara, and the five sheaths are for the jiva.

Commentary (टीका)
This verse addresses the concept of duality and opposition between Ishvara and jiva, asserting that it is an 'upādhi-kalpita,' an imagined creation of adjuncts or limitations, notably through māyā and the five sheaths. For Ishvara, this adjunct is māyā, acting as a causal entity orchestrating cosmic functions starting with the creation principle of Mahat. For the jiva, the living soul, bound to its corporeal existence, these adjuncts manifest as the five sheaths or pañcakośa, which encapsulate the physical, vital, mental, intuitive, and blissful aspects of life. The verse invites the seeker to discern these imagined distinctions and understand that the fundamental essence of both Ishvara and jiva is ultimately non-dual and unseparated from the underlying reality.
