Exegesis
The conjunction kî {כִּֽי־ | kî} introduces the reason clause, where the perfect verb pāraṣ {פָרַ֧ץ | pāraṣ} portrays a completed divine action.
The noun peretz {פֶּ֖רֶץ | pēreṣ} denotes both rupture and judgment, with the prepositional phrase bə-ʿUzzā {בְּעֻזָּ֑א | bə-ʿūzzā} specifying Uzzah as its focus.
