Exegesis

The response begins with wayyomer {וַיֹּ֨אמֶר | wayyōmer} ‘and he said,’ followed by the dative pronoun lo {ל֤וֹ | lō} ‘to him,’ leading to the imperative aleh {עֲלֵ֔ה | ʿālēh} ‘go up’ and the promise unetatim {וּנְתַתִּ֖ים | ûnəṯattîm} ‘I will give them,’ with the concluding prepositional clause beyadekha {בְּיָדֶֽךָ׃ | bəyāḏəkā} ‘into your hand.’ English shifts from Hebrew VSO to SVO for clarity while preserving the deliberative–response pattern.
