Exegesis

The narrative then continues with another vav-consecutive verb vayyevi’em {וַיְבִיאֵם | wayyēḇî’ēm} ‘and he brought them’, followed by the destination Yerushalayim {יְרוּשָׁלָֽ͏ִם | Yə-rū-šā-lā-yim}. English reorders the Hebrew’s verb-initial clauses into subject-verb-object order while preserving the construct chain and relative clause to maintain emphasis on David’s victory and the transfer of spoils.

In context1 Chronicles 18:7
