Exegesis
The conjunction ki {כִּי | kî} introduces the causal clause with haelohim immakha {הָאֱלֹהִים עִמָּךְ | hā-ʾĕ-lō-hîm ʿim-mă-ḵā} ‘the God is with you’, affirming divine accompaniment. English word order shifts to subject–verb–object–causal clause to preserve clarity while reflecting the Hebrew emphasis on divine presence.
