Exegesis

The verse opens with a pair of parallel prepositional phrases, kəḵōl {כְּכֹל | kĕ-ḵōl} ‘as all’ and ū-kəḵōl {וּכְכֹל | ū-kĕ-ḵōl} ‘and as all’, each governing a noun (devarim {דְּבָרִים | dĕ-bā-rîm} ‘words’; ḥāzōn {חָזוֹן | ḥā-zōn} ‘vision’) to express total inclusiveness.

This is followed by the result marker kên {כֵּן | kên} ‘thus’, introducing the Piel perfect verb ḏib-bēr {דִּבֵּר | ḏib-bēr} ‘he spoke’, which conveys Nathan’s authoritative proclamation.
